Winemaking & Terroir
Historic Estate in Provence
Nestled in the hills above the Bay of Saint-Tropez, Château la Tour de l’Évêque benefits from rocky limestone soils and a cooling maritime influence. The Sainte Anne Rosé vineyard is planted on terraced slopes that ensure optimal drainage and ripening.
Grape Selection & Vinification
The Sainte Anne Rosé is crafted from a blend of Grenache, Cinsault and Syrah grapes. Hand-harvested at dawn, the fruit is carefully sorted and subjected to a brief cold maceration to extract delicate color and aromatics. Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless-steel tanks, preserving freshness and varietal expression.
