2022 Chateau de Saint Martin - Cotes de Provence Rose Eternelle Favorite

One of only 23 cru classe properties in Provence. It’s classic Provence rose –pale, crisp, aromatic and dry. And as you know has always been run by women with the exception of one generation. Another Bassins direct import "discovery"

This cuvée, all about elegance and refinement -partially aged in fine-grained acacia barrels, is a tribute to the countesses of the family who have almost exclusively run the estate, since 1740, from mother to daughter. The oak aging makes this wine extra silky! A blend of grenache, syrah and tibouren.

Chateau de Saint Martin is one of the most premium producers in the appellation of Provence. Its vineyards are overlooked by a large Chateau built in 1740. The original site was a priory of the monks of Lerins, with the old cellars underneath still intact and dating from the 12th century. The vineyards of Chateau de Saint Martin sit at an altitude of up to 130 metres, and lie at the junction of two distinct geological zones, offering an unique terroir. Classified as a "Cru Classe," Saint Martin produces some of the finest Provencal Rose in the world, as well as other reds and whites in smaller amounts.
