James Suckling
"A rosé recipe whispered by the angels!"
A delicious, well-defined, and balanced rosé with aromas of red berries and citrus. Smooth and velvety on the palate, it features lovely length, constant freshness, and an energetic finish.

Bettane & Desseauve
Rated estate (2018 guide): 2*Stars (A solid, recommendable wine, though slightly more consistent and uniform than the previous vintage)
About the estate:
Since 2006, this estate has been owned by Sacha Lichine, the former owner of Château Prieuré-Lichine in Margaux. He has taken a hands-on approach to winemaking, working with Patrick Léon (formerly of Mouton-Rothschild) to produce wines of great precision. Their Garrus cuvée is likely the most expensive Provence rosé on the market.
Guide Hachette des vins
Rated estate (2018 guide) Award-winning wines (This producer's wines regularly receive awards from the guide)
About the estate:
A renowned match manufacturer from Marseille in the 1850s, Joseph Toussaint Caussemille was one of the many owners of Château d’Esclans and lent his name to this estate, which is centered around a 19th-century building inspired by Tuscan villas and built on the ruins of a medieval castle. Sacha Lichine, son of the late Alexis Lichine, former owner of Château Prieuré-Lichine, took over this 267-hectare estate (including 44 hectares of vineyards) in 2006; it is renowned for its oak-aged rosés.

An elegant, fragrant nose of pink cherry pits, peach skin, and cherry blossoms. A medium-bodied wine with fresh, rounded acidity and a textured finish. An elegant, pure finish. Best enjoyed by 2027.
