Château d’Estoublon Roseblood Rosé 2025

Coteaux Varois en Provence, Provence, France | Grenache, Syrah, Cinsault & Rolle

Elegant, refreshing and beautifully expressive, Roseblood Rosé 2025 captures the effortless sophistication of Provence. Produced by Château d’Estoublon, a historic estate in the heart of southern France, this beautifully crafted rosé combines delicate floral aromatics, fresh fruit and a refined mineral finish in a style that feels equally at home at an elegant dinner or a relaxed afternoon outdoors.

The wine displays a pale, luminous pink color with subtle rose-water reflections. Aromas of linden blossom, jasmine, vineyard peach and freshly cut watermelon lead into a refreshing palate of citrus, tangy red berries and delicate stone fruit. A mineral backbone adds precision and tension, while bright acidity keeps the wine lively and balanced. The finish is long, clean and lightly saline, making this a sophisticated, exceptionally food-friendly rosé.

What Makes It Special?

Château d’Estoublon is a historic Provençal estate celebrated for its wines, olive oils and Mediterranean lifestyle. Roseblood reflects the estate's contemporary take on Provence rosé: elegant, aromatic and polished, with a strong emphasis on freshness and balance.

The vines grow at approximately 350–400 meters above sea level in the limestone-rich landscapes of Provence. Clay-limestone soils, red earth, gravel and flint contribute to the wine's texture and mineral character, while the region's sunny days help develop ripe fruit aromas.

Winemaking

Roseblood is produced through direct pressing, followed by cool fermentation to preserve the grapes' delicate aromas. Fermentation and maturation take place in stainless-steel and concrete vats, without the influence of oak. The wine spends several weeks on fine lees, adding subtle texture and complexity while maintaining its crisp, refreshing personality.
