Winery and Terroir

Domaine de Saint-Julien-les-Vignes is nestled in the sun-drenched hills of Provence, where limestone-clay soils and a Mediterranean climate yield grapes of exceptional purity. Warm days and cool evenings preserve natural acidity and amplify aromatic complexity.

Grape Varieties and Vinification

Provençal Blend

This Vin Rosé is crafted from a harmonious assemblage of Grenache, Cinsault, and Mourvèdre. Hand-harvested fruit undergoes gentle pneumatic pressing, followed by cool fermentation in stainless steel tanks to capture crisp fruit character and vibrant freshness.

Tasting Notes

On the nose, expect inviting aromas of wild strawberry, raspberry, and delicate rose petal. The palate is bright and zesty, unveiling flavors of red currant, grapefruit zest, and a subtle mineral undertone that leads to a clean, lingering finish.

Food Pairing

This versatile rosé pairs beautifully with grilled prawns, Niçoise salads, sushi plates, and fresh goat cheese. Its lively acidity and soft fruit profile also complement light pasta dishes, charcuterie boards, and summer barbecue fare.

Serving Recommendations

Best enjoyed chilled between 8 °C and 10 °C. No decanting required—simply refrigerate for 30–60 minutes before serving to enhance its aromatic depth.
