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.

This rose wine benefits from two prestigious appelations : AOP côtes de Provence and Cru Classé.

Musts are cold-stabilized for 5 to 10 days, then settled to obtain clear juice. Fermentation of 100% of the juice in wooden vats to give this wine great complexity. Temperature control throughout alcoholic fermentation to optimize aromatic expression. Aged on lees with regular stirring of the lees.
