Domaine de Saint-Ser
Côtes de Provence Sainte-Victoire
Pre-Arrival (arriving October 2010)
The Domaine de Saint-Ser, located entirely in the “Côtes de Provence
Sainte-Victoire” appellation just south of Aix-en-Provence, covers 82
acres on a stunning hillside on the Saint-Victoire mountain. As a
result of its high location on the mountain, Domaine de Saint-Ser
benefits from an ideal climate and extraordinary sunlight thanks to its
southern exposure and the reflection of the light off the white rocks of
the mountainside.
To complement the vineyard’s natural strengths, Domaine de Saint-Ser
also has one of the most modern wine cellars in the appellation. Its
stainless steel tanks, fully equipped with temperature-control devices,
allow the Domaine’s cellar master and winemaker to prepare top quality
and award-winning wines.
2009 Domaine de Saint-Ser Cuvée Rosé Prestige
We are offering the Domaine’s 2009 Cuvée Prestige Rosé. The Rosé is the
wine on which the Domaine’s stellar reputation was built.
Characterized by a bright and crystalline robe of beautiful pink, the
Rosé Prestige reveals complex flavors of grapefruit, white peach and
mountain strawberry, nicely framed by minerals throughout the finish. The Rosé’s blend of Grenache, Cinsault and Syrah provide the wine with
its complex aroma, with each grape varietal contributing its own
personal touch to the finished product: the Grenache lends an aroma of
red berries, the Cinsault gives it a touch of finesse, and the Syrah
provides the wine with an aromatic intensity. Full-bodied and fresh in the mouth, Saint-Ser’s 2009 Rosé Prestige is a
beautiful wine, typical of its appellation and terroir, and is the
perfect wine for any summer day!
