2021 Miraval Rosé, Côtes de Provence

Description

In the past, I’ve described Miraval’s peerless Provence rosé as “dangerously drinkable”, and the 2021 is no different. It is pale, almost imperceptibly pink – the perfect colour for rosé. This is gloriously scented with wild strawberries, forced rhubarb and garrigue. There’s more soft red fruit on the palate, with a delicate peach note and wet-stone minerality. Wines for whiling away a summer afternoon don’t get better than this.

About this wine

Miraval

Miraval is located close to the ancient town of Correns, just to the north of Brignoles right in the heart of Provence. The property is, if you will forgive the hyperbole, pretty much as close to paradise as it is possible to be, a terraced oasis nestling in the forests and scrub of the Mediterranean. Its history goes some way to explain the magical aura which pervades the valley; located close to the Roman road Via Aurelia, Miraval was the site of a monastery in the Middle Ages, thereafter a refuge for the Bourbon kings. More recently, it has been a peaceful retreat for latter-day troubadours, its recording studio tempting the likes of Sting, Sade and Pink Floyd to record some of their finest work over the years. Inspiration is clearly not hard to come by here. The latest incumbents are no strangers to fame and fortune; not only is Miraval the summer retreat of Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, but it is also the winery where they have launched a joint venture with the Perrin family of the renowned Château de Beaucastel in the Rhône Valley.
