Download

Roseblood Rosé stands as the flagship cuvée, meticulously crafted to showcase elegance and subtle complexity. Under the skilled orchestration of Technical Director Victor Joyeux, this exceptional blend is sourced from Coteaux Varois en Provence vineyards. Comprising Grenache, Syrah, and Rolle, it results in a harmonious composition of flavors. It comes in an elegant, playful, and bold packaging. The serpent serves as a symbol of seductive power, while the rose represents vitality and infuses floral, both embodying the essence of Château d’Estoublon’s “Garden of Eden.”

Vineyard

In the heart of Coteaux Varois en Provence, Roseblood’s vineyards sprawl across hillsides at elevations of 1,100-1,600 feet. The vines thrive in a mild continental climate, where gentle autumns and springs alternate with occasionally torrid summers and colder winters compared to the rest of the region.

The region’s red earth soils, complemented by pockets of flint and gravel, impart a harmonious blend of expression, freshness, balance and roundness to the wines.

Winemaking

In this blend of four emblematic Provençal grape varietals, each plays a distinctive role: Grenache contributes roundness, delicacy, and subtle aromas, while Syrah adds power and color. Cinsault, known for finesse and fruity notes, gently balances the strength provided by Grenache and Syrah. Rolle, the iconic white grape of Provence, introduces a touch of tension, freshness, and floral notes to complete this well-balanced blend.

2023 was a solar and graceful vintage, exhibiting a delightful aromatic expression with interplay of acidity and freshness.

Reviews

Vinous - May 21, 2024 "The 2023 Rosé Roseblood is notably elegant in its overall feel. Pineapple, peach, mango and jasmine engage with a particularly stony, salty mineral tension in the mouth. Expressive and neatly proportioned, this just sails across the finish line, keeping things fresh with a perfectly judged spine of citrus acidity."

James Suckling - July 10, 2024 "A fruity, playful and succulent rosé with aromas of redcurrants, melon and straw. It’s medium-bodied with a fruity and tangy character. Round-textured and relaxed with a flavorful finish."

Wine Spectator - March 28, 2024 "Offers a vivid mix of strawberry, melon and crunchy nectarine flavors set against notes of smoke, fresh green herbs and salty mineral on a full palate. Immensely drinkable, with good balance between density, energy and elegance."

Decanter - July 10, 2024 "Delicate and pretty, this rosé from Château d'Estoublon – which is co-owned by French singer Carla Bruni and the Prats family – is cotton soft and easy to drink. Plums and red berries surge through the palate, layered with strawberry pip and floral notes."
