WINERY SUMMARY

Nestled in the heart of Côtes de Provence, Château Saint-Maur stands as a testament to centuries of winemaking excellence. This distinguished Cru Classé estate, one of just 18 in Provence, combines time-honored traditions with innovative viticulture to create wines of remarkable distinction. The château's 100-hectare vineyard benefits from the unique Mediterranean microclimate, where sun-drenched days and cool maritime nights create perfect conditions for growing exceptional grapes.

The estate's soil composition, predominantly limestone and schist, imparts a distinctive mineral character to their wines, particularly evident in their acclaimed rosés. Under the stewardship of Roger Zannier, who acquired the estate in 2011, Château Saint-Maur has undergone a complete modernization of its winemaking facilities while maintaining unwavering respect for terroir and tradition.

The estate's flagship wine, 'L'Excellence', exemplifies their commitment to quality, featuring a masterful blend of Grenache, Cinsault, and Rolle grapes, hand-harvested at optimal maturity.

The winemaking team, led by skilled oenologists, employs precision viticulture and gentle pressing techniques to preserve the grapes' delicate aromatics. Temperature-controlled fermentation in state-of-the-art tanks ensures the preservation of subtle flavors and the creation of wines with remarkable complexity and elegance.

Beyond their renowned rosés, the château produces exceptional white and red wines, each reflecting the unique characteristics of their Mediterranean terroir.

The estate's commitment to sustainability is evident in their viticultural practices, including organic farming methods and water conservation initiatives, ensuring the preservation of their exceptional terroir for future generations.
