Wine rated (2016 guide) 16/20 (Very good wine)

Rated estate (2023 guide) 3 stars (High-quality production, serving as a benchmark in its sector)

About wine:

Salty, elegant, and refined, this rosé has style.

About the estate:

A prominent family in 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 wine business continues under the leadership of Christian and Jean-François, the Ott cousins, proving that the family remains very involved and is still a shareholder. The finest vintages are all rosés and remain, with admirable consistency, among the most successful in Provence.

They also own Ch. de Selle and Clos Mireille in Côtes-de-Provence. Two AOCs and a unique bottle, inspired by Roman amphorae. The estate (part of the Roederer group since 2004) is run by cousins Christian and Jean-François Ott.
