Clos Mireille - Blanc de Blancs 2014
91/100
Wine Enthusiast
With an unparalleled terroir overlooking the sea, the Clos Mireille vineyards benefit from the warmth of the French Riviera and the sea mist—ideal conditions for the development of Sémillon and Rolle. These grapes develop aromas of ripe fruit and spices, all enhanced by a touch of acidity. A white wine with a silky, rich texture, perfect for pairing with a hearty bouillabaisse. It’s the must-have white wine of Provence!

Bettane & Desseauve
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.
