Domaine de la Portanière - Rosé Pierrefeu - 2024 - Côtes de Provence Pierrefeu

Rosé

Description

Pale, delicately pink color.
The nose is expressive and refined, marked by notes of garrigue reminiscent of the South of France.

On the palate, the attack is lively and refreshing, supported by a beautiful freshness. The aromas unfold elegantly around summer fruits, such as white peach and juicy apricot. The structure reveals a beautiful harmony between tension and roundness.

The finish, long and flavorful, concludes with a subtle note of white pepper, a typical aromatic signature of wines from the Pierrefeu appellation, which adds a spicy and mineral touch, reinforcing the originality and persistence of this characterful rosé.

Know a bit more about the domain

Domaine de la Portanière, located in Pierrefeu-du-Var, dates back to 1838, with the planting of the first vines on the Le Puy plot. At that time, one hectare of traditional grape varieties (Clairette, Grand Noir, Cinsault) was cultivated simply for local consumption.
Since 1850, the estate has been passed down from generation to generation, in the hands of Hilarion Magne's family, who made this Provençal countryside a welcoming and authentic place to live.
Over the decades, the vineyard has expanded to include emblematic plots with evocative names: Jaz, Mamelon, Restanques, Petite Vallée, Grande Pièce, and Virage.
The first bottles were marketed in 1953 under the appellation "Côtes de Provence Domaine du Peyrol."
Today, Domaine de la Portanière is cultivated by the Blancard family. The vineyard covers 13 hectares, entirely classified as "AOC Côtes de Provence", and is in conversion to organic farming, and rosé represents 80% of the Domaine's production.
