Château Rousset - IGP Alpes de Hautes Provence - Vermentino 2025

The Vermentino du Château Rousset is a pretty white from Provence where freshness and exuberant aromas mingle. This organic wine develops aromas of exotic fruit and cedar, with freshness and minerality. A no-holds-barred, putasier white, but more racy and elegant than ever. Château Rousset is located in the Manosque region, between Aix and Sisteron, in the Coteaux de Pierrevert AOC, which stretches along the hills bordering the Durance River. Small, heterogeneous in its exposures and terroirs, and often forgotten in books and maps, this appellation nonetheless remains a great reserve of nological discovery for lovers of freshness.The Château Rousset has belonged to the EMERY family since the early 19th century and remains family-owned. It is organically farmed and has many north-facing plots, which enable the wines to retain their elegance and freshness. Prices are very measured!"The vineyard forms an original entity where Rhodanian and Provençal influences meet, but where altitude tempers the southern aspect of the wines. They have a freshness that invigorates their expression. When well used, this character accentuates the perception and fullness of the fruit. Didn't the writer Jean Giono, whose work resonates with the Manosque region, evoke its "Vraies Richesses"? (Mohamed BOUDELLAL, Revue du Vin de France).

The wines of Manosque have a freshness that tones their expression.
