Regional Information
Regional InformationTerroir of Saint-Victoire:
The terroir of Saint-Victoire is composed of limestone clay parcels located on slopes that overlook the Upper Arc Valley. Situated on two opposing hillsides, one south of the Sainte-Victoire mountain and the other north-northwest of the Aurélien mountains, the region enjoys optimal growing conditions. The Mediterranean climate provides exceptional sunshine exposure, complemented by the cooling influence of the Mistral wind. This unique climate, with its significant thermal amplitude and more continental character, allows the grapes to ripen perfectly. These conditions create a natural balance between freshness and acidity, producing wines with elegance and depth.
Winemaking:
The winemaking process for Miraval Sainte Victoire Rosé begins with the careful selection of parcels. To preserve the vibrant freshness of the fruit, the grapes are picked at night. The vinification process takes place at controlled temperatures to maintain the purity and freshness of the aromas. After fermentation, the wine undergoes short aging on fine lees, which enhances its complexity and mouthfeel, ensuring a refined and harmonious wine.
