Producer

Producer

The Château Vignelaure vineyard stretches across the hills above the village of Rians, at an altitude of 350 to 400 meters. This exceptional terroir rests on stony, clay-limestone soils, ideal for producing elegant and balanced wines. Benefiting from abundant sunshine and cool nights, the vines develop a slow and gradual ripening, essential for the freshness of the rosés. The estate, certified organic, works with respect for biodiversity and the soil. Each grape variety is planted on the plot best suited to it, ensuring a faithful expression of the Provençal terroir.

Their vision: to produce precise, elegant, and sustainable wines that reflect their terroir.
