The historical classification of Provence properties was made in 1855; 23 domains were selected of which only 18 still exist – and one of these is Ch. Ste Roseline, the source of Kylie Minogue’s Provence rosé. This petal-pink ‘Cru Classé’ wine comes from some of the property’s best vineyards. Look out for creamy, tender aromas of peach, hawthorn flower and almond. On the palate, the wine is dry, structured and vinous, with almond, peach and lemon flavours, and even a hint of green olive. This is a more concentrated, glycerous, resonant and food-friendly wine than the prettier, perter but slightly shorter Côtes de Provence Rosé.
