Roseline - IGP Méditerranée Perle rosé 2025

A magnificent estate and the top tourist destination in the Var region, featuring a chapel adorned with frescoes and mosaics by Chagall, Bazaine, and Ubac, as well as a bas-relief by Giacometti, Château Sainte-Roseline is a magical place in Provence. The château is actually a former 11th-century abbey, founded by a hermit. Roseline, daughter of the Marquis de Villeneuve, Lord of Les Arcs, served as Mother Prioress of the abbey from 1300 to 1329. She was beatified in the 19th century, and her remains now rest beneath a glass reliquary in the chapel. Today, we should honor Aurélie Bertin, who has successfully revitalized the vineyard, located near Les Arcs-sur-Argens, which spans more than 100 hectares. Hospitality is the hallmark of this estate, and guided tours (with tastings) are organized year-round in various languages.

Surrounding the 11th-century Sainte-Roseline Abbey and its chapel, where the saint’s relics rest, this former vineyard of the bishops of Fréjus (where Pope John XXII once stayed) lies alongside olive groves and forests, covering an area of 90 hectares. In 1994, Bernard Teillaud undertook the renovation of this property, and in 2007, his daughter Aurélie Bertin Teillaud took over the estate. It is one of Provence’s eighteen classified wines and a cornerstone of the appellation, often recognized for its reds.

Since 1994, Bernard Teillaud, a real estate developer from Grenoble, has invested a large portion of his fortune in creating a unique setting in Sainte-Roseline, Les Arcs-sur-Argens. The 93-hectare vineyard produces beautifully crafted wines available in several cuvée tiers: Lampe de Méduse, Prieure, and finally La Chapelle, in white, rosé, and red varieties. The estate also offers a wide range of merchant wines. For the past ten years, Aurélie Teillaud has managed Sainte-Roseline with great energy and determination, continuing to develop the estate and promote it around the world. The estate’s most recent vintages demonstrate that it maintains a high standard and ranks among Provence’s most reliable choices. The Teillaud family also owns Château des Demoiselles in La Motte.
