Château de Selle is located in the Côtes de Provence appellation, located inland on limestone hillsides, enjoying abundant sunshine. The proportion of stone in the soil is 40 to 50 percent, making it an arid soil and, despite the presence of some extremely fertile clay deposits, yields are low. Château de Selle has an area of 140 hectares, of which 64 hectares are planted. Year after year, the cultivated area of the estate wins over part of the rocky terrain. The earth is mechanically tilled while retaining a natural balance, the original proportion of stone being maintained after crushing. The crushing process is carried out on a yearly basis.
Tasting Notes
Clear, pale pink hue with rose-gold tints. The nose opens with delicate floral notes and aromas of acacia blossom. Château de Selle 2018 then develops fruity notes of grapefruit, yellow peach and redcurrant, complemented by a subtle hint of almond. The palate is generous with a lovely silky texture and notes of stone fruit and a pleasant citrus freshness (lime and grapefruit). The finish is persistent and brings a delicate touch of spice.
