While looking for a European retreat to evade the Hollywood spotlight, celebrities Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt happened across Miraval, an over 1,200 acre property in Provence. Once there, they found themselves increasingly taken with the idea of using the property to produce world-class wine. To this end, they turned to the Perrin family (of Châteauneuf-du-Pape estate Beaucastel fame) to help them in their new venture. This unique partnership has resulted in, so far, two very successful vintages of dry, crisp rosé, with the promise of a bevy of rosés, whites, and reds in future vintages.
While limited in supply (only 16,000 cases made), we’ve managed to acquire a few cases so that our Asheville customers have the opportunity to sample this top-notch rosé born of the unlikely union of celebrity, family wine-making tradition, and terroir. With classic flavors of strawberry and citrus, a light touch on the palate, and a mineral-driven finish that’s clean and even, the Miraval rosé is perfect for summertime enjoyment. As versatile with food as it is enjoyable on its own, its not hard to see why the wine world has been so taken with the story of this wine’s success, as well as with the charms of the wine itself!
