A cherry-black hue? We're immediately seduced. The aromas that emerge from the glass are subtle and elegant, with scents of Morello cherry and violet. The attack is fresh, followed by spicy notes and a delicate tannic structure. A lovely Provence red.

Expert opinion
Bettane & Desseauve
Domain rated (guide 2021) 2*Stars (A serious and recommendable production, but a little more regular and homogeneous than the previous one)
About the domain :
Hidden away at the foot of the Alpilles mountains, in a magical, spectacular setting worthy of a James Bond film, this 58-hectare estate now belongs to the Charmolüe family, former owners of Château Montrose, Cru Classé de Saint-Estèphe. Cultivated as close as possible to nature, the vineyard finds its rhythm in biodynamics, the progress of the wines is clearly perceptible and their purity undeniable. Since 2018, a brand-new winery has complemented the spectacular historic winery, enabling the wines to continue to progress.

About the domain :
Former owners of Ch. Montrose, a Saint-Estèphe cru classé, Anne-Marie and Jean-Louis Charmolüe acquired this vast estate (250 ha) with its ancient past in 2006, located in the heart of the Alpilles Regional Nature Park in Saint-Rémy-de-Provence. The vineyard covers 58 ha, farmed biodynamically since 1988, and the wines are matured in a monumental cellar, carved out of the rock and designed like a Gothic cathedral.
Guide des Vins Gault & Millau
Domain rated 3*Stars (very good production)
About the domain :
Right in the heart of the Alpilles mountains, this small 60-hectare estate is home to a number of Mediterranean red (syrah, grenache, cinsault...) and white (rolle...) grape varieties, as well as non-Mediterranean varieties (cabernet-sauvignon), all grown biodynamically. The grapes are vinified in a rather original location: an underground cathedral. The estate, acquired in 2006 by Jean-Louis Charmolüe (Château Montrose, Saint-Estèphe), benefits from the advice of Bordeaux oenologist Denis Dubourdieu.
