In a region dominated by rosés, this special white blend from Domaine Sainte Philomène is a delightful departure from the norm. Made from 80% Vermentino and 20% Ugni Blanc, expect a clean-and-lean profile that's characteristic of Vermentino, but with a twist: an exotic burst of tropical fruits like mango and papaya, tempered by a zesty finish from the Ugni Blanc. This wine, crafted by head winemaker Geoffroy de la Perrière, embodies a fresh, modern vision while still respecting the deep-rooted legacy of this ancient Provençal estate. While it pairs well with a variety of dishes, its light oiliness and hint of tropical fruit make it particularly suited for grilled prawns with a mango salsa or a citrusy, herb-marinated chicken breast. A refreshing testament to the untapped potential of Provence's white wines.

Eloi in the vines and the cellar, This is one of the best reds in the region. Cabernet sauvignon used to exist in Provence before phylloxera. Blended with syrah it would produce excellent wines. The two grape varieties associated with the limestone terroir of the domain give Trevallon its unique style. Of course, Eloi didn’t study oenology so he wasnt a know-it-all with arrogant self confidence or preconceived ideas. He simply wanted to make a natural wine, that’s all. Certain about his choice and the history of the Baux vineyards, Eloi chooses to declassify his wine to vin de pays, imposed by the INAO, rather than betray the personality of its wines.
