Miraval Côtes de Provence Blanc - 2023
Miraval Côtes du Provence Blanc is a refined and expressive white wine that beautifully balances fleshy richness with mineral precision. Aromas of white fruits, vine peaches, and almonds create an inviting bouquet, while the wine's texture offers a harmonious blend of freshness and depth.
The vineyards, located on gentle slopes (between 5 and 9%) on clay-limestone soils, benefit from subsoil composed of Keuper marl, an ideal environment for growing the finest white grape varieties. The low internal surface area of these clays allows for the perfect balance of fruit expression and minerality.
Harvested by hand in 35 kg crates, the grapes are carefully sorted before being gently pressed. Fermentation occurs at low temperatures, preserving the fresh, aromatic qualities of the fruit. The wine then undergoes aging in demi-muids and barrels, with 50% of the vintage being bottled after maturation to ensure a refined, balanced profile.
