“Located right by the sea (you can practically throw a stone into the water), this vineyard produces a fresh, almost briny wine with a hint of tart citrus. It is fragrant, with notes of raspberry and pear. The finish offers a crisp, delicious acidity. ” (Wine Enthusiast 2016) With its unique terroir, microclimate, meticulous viticulture, and state-of-the-art winemaking, Clos Mireille remains one of the icons of Provence.

Rated estate (2023 guide) 3*Stars (High-quality production, setting the standard in its sector)

About the estate:

A prominent family in the world of Provençal wine, the Otts entered the wine industry by acquiring Château de Selle in 1912, Clos Mireille in 1930, and Domaine Romassan in 1956. Taken over by the Roederer Group in 2004, the winery continues to operate under the leadership of Christian and Jean-François, the Ott cousins, proof that the family remains deeply involved and, in fact, is still a shareholder. The finest vintages are all rosés and, with admirable consistency, remain among the most successful in Provence.
