Château Estoublon lies in the heart of the Alpilles mountains, a region immortalised for its connection to the indomitable Domaine Trévallon. Its history begins with Ernest Scheider who, as a great lover of Provence, bought the domaine with its olive groves in their rather poor state. His daughter Valérie eventually came round to the idea of taking over the estate which she now runs with her husband Rémy Reboul. What the latter lacked in technical know-how he certainly makes up for with enthusiasm, turning to Eloi Dürrbach for practical advice and assistance before managing the winemaking alone. These wines are now safe bets from the superb Baux de Provence appellation. Viticulture is organic.

This cuvée presents a resplendent golden colour with slight green inflections. The nose opens with delectable aromas of honey and white flowers, leading into a fresh lively palate marked with floral, fruity and underlying woody notes. This is a well-balanced wine pairing excellently with delicate flavours such as fish in sauce or chicken with spring vegetables. An equal blend of Grenache Blanc, Marsanne and Roussane, this fabulous Alpilles white is pressed without additions of sulphites or exogenous yeasts. All grapes are harvested by hand before fermenting in stainless steel vats. Three-quarters of the production is vinified and matured in barrels, and in natural concrete amphorae for the remaining quarter.
