Figuière - Côtes de Provence Première rosé 2025
89/100
RVF
"This Première vintage is top-notch, with notes of summer peach and a long, briny finish!"
This Premier Rosé combines elegance, a rich, rounded palate, and a briny character. This rosé cuvée reveals a very expressive nose, with exotic aromas of pineapple, lychee, and fresh apricot intertwined with notes of white pepper and nutmeg. The palate is full-bodied, beautifully fruity, harmonious, and refined, accentuated on the finish by briny notes. A rosé worthy of the appellation’s finest wines!

Rated estate (2020 guide): 2*Stars (A solid, recommendable production, though slightly more consistent and uniform than the previous one)
About the estate:
It is one of the most famous estates in Provence. It belongs to the Combard family, who manage this 85-hectare vineyard, 30 hectares of which are leased. The vines, located along the coast on schist soil, have been cultivated using organic methods since 1979. Steps are currently underway to transition the entire estate to biodynamic farming. We applaud this commitment, which is no small feat for an estate of this size. While the wines are among Provence’s most reliable offerings, the family also goes above and beyond in welcoming visitors and, during the warmer months, offers a cultural program that’s well worth a visit.
