The vineyards at Domaine de la Vielle Tour are situated in the best area of the AC Côtes de Provence with a very particular micro-climate and sandstone clay soils.

This palest of pink Provencal rosé wine is a classic blend of Grenache, Syrah and Cinsault with all the grapes picked by hand.

This is a rosé de presse produced in an ultra-modern gravity fed winery.

The wine itself is a perfect, pale, raspbery-pink wine that is very drinkable. Delicate aromas are followed by lovely sweet fruit from Grenache grapes. Clean and well balanced with good depth. 

Lovely served chilled on a summer’s day on the terrace or as the ideal accompaniment to seafood or Mediterranean inspired dishes.

Provence, France

Provence is one of the oldest wine regions in France, with a history dating back over 2,600 years. The ancient Greeks were the first to introduce vine cultivation to the area in the 6th century BCE, and the Romans later expanded the region's viticulture.

Today, Provence is best known for its rosé wines, which account for over 80% of the region's wine production.

Cinsault

Cinsault is a fragrant and pretty grape. It can have lifted red berry aromas, like raspberry, strawberry and cherry, with floral violet notes. 

It is an important component of blends from Languedoc-Roussillon, the southern Rhône and even Châteauneuf-du-Pape. It adds freshness and fragrance to blends of Grenache, Mourvèdre and Carignan, and is also a major contributor to Provence rosé.

Grenache / Garnacha

Found throughout northern Spain and southern France, there are three variants: Grenache Noir, Blanc and Gris. 

Grenache Noir is the most common. It is generally spicy, berry-flavored and soft on the palate. Complex and intense notes of blackcurrants, black cherries, black olives, coffee, gingerbread, honey, leather, black pepper, tar, spices, and roasted nuts can also be found.

Syrah/Shiraz

A red grape variety that is widely planted around the world, particularly in southern France, South Africa and Australia. Typically wines are full-bodied and deeply coloured.

Generally called Syrah in the old world, or Shiraz in the new. It produces wines which are typically high in tannins and acidity, and can exhibit a range of flavors and aromas, including blackberry, black pepper, smoke, and leather.
