Description
Enjoying it's exeptional location in les Arcs-sur-Argens (30 minutes from Saint-Tropez and of Cannes) on the Côte d'Azur, Château Sainte Roseline is one of the most renounded wine estates of Provence. The prestigious wine estate and unique domaine both Site and Cru Classé, Château Sainte Roseline is a part of the rare A.O.P sides of Provence « Cru Classé » since 1955 (creation date and designation Cru Classé). We produce fine and ballanced wines available in the three collors : rosé, white and red.
Aurélie Bertin took back the direction of this family estate in 2007 and infused it with her dynamism, her modern vision and oenotourism of the rather traditional and artisanal job of the vigneron, her perfectionism and evedently her femininity.
The owner inscribed Château Sainte Roseline in a march towards sustainable developement. Once we obtained the HEV 3 (High Environmental Valuede level 3) certificate, we will aim for the label of "Vignerons Engagés". The domaine has equally anounced it's conversion to being bio and assured that from now on the production is 100% vegetal - Vegan (without any animal inputs) and it's property wines. The first vats certified Biological Agricuture will see the light of day in 2022.
Sainte Roseline's chaple is the vat of exeption from the Château Sainte Roseline. From a selection of our best parcells,Château Sainte Roseline is a top of the line cuvée that delights even the most refined palette. This rose wine benefits from two prestigious appelations : AOP côtes de Provence and Cru Classé.
