Producer Profile

Boasting an outstanding location in the heart of Provence, the Chateau de l'Escarelle's 100 hectares of vines flourish in 1000 hectares of unspoilt countryside.

The estate achieved HVE (Haute Valeur Environnementale - France's most stringent environmental certification scheme) certification in 2016 and is organic-certified, demonstrating the Château de l'Escarelle's deep-rooted commitment to protecting the natural world and confirming it's position as a major player of sustainable agriculture in France.

The vines are planted at up to 500 metres above sea level, hugging the slopes of the Montagne de La Loube, and adapting to the estates' different clay and limestone soil profiles. The terroir’s distinctive character is perfect for creating highly-expressive, complex and sophisticated wines.

Viticulture
Produced using organic farming methods from shallow clay-limestone & sand soils situated at around 250m / 820 ft. above sea level.

Winemaking
Mechanically-harvested in the early hours of the morning to obtain wine of an attractively pale colour. Grapes are completely destemmed. The winemaking is by the traditional method in stainless steel vats: allowing a short period of skin maceration before pressing. Cold temperature settling is the next stage. Fermentation is temperature-controlled, carefully preventing malolactic fermentation to retain those crisp, fresh aromas.

Much of the energy used in the winery is supplied by solar panels and all of the water used in the wine making process is recovered and treated.  The technology the winery has invested in has made it possible to move entirely to night harvesting.

Tasting Notes

The ‘Château’ is blended in the traditional way, with a short maceration period. Dependable, elegant and bursting with fruit. The ideal way to get to know the vineyard and taste the terroir. Delicate and elegant floral aromas with lively minerality on the palate, clean attack and delicious strawberry notes.
