Chateau du Rouët has been situated since 1840 at the foot of the red mountains , which are part of the Estérel mountains near the town of Fréjus in Provence. Since the creation of the winery, the vineyard has contributed to the conservation of the environment and the wooded area . The wine region is situated in an exceptionally beautiful part of this landscape, surrounded by sequoias, palms, bamboo and pine trees.
Five generations have succeeded each other in making quality Provence wines. Only the best grapes are selected and with the help of the forests that protect the vineyards from the sometimes severe mistral, wines are made here with elegance and refinement. The vineyards are located at an altitude of 560 meters on mainly volcanic rock . This combination provides a lot of freshness and elegance with beautiful acids in the wines. Provence is the oldest wine region in France, around 2600 years ago there was already wine growing here. Thanks to the Romans, peace and prosperity came to the region, which benefited wine production. The soil in Provence is divided into three parts : the part on the coast with mainly granite and very old slate, the part that is lower with a lot of red sandstone , clay and sand and the higher parts with mainly a calcareous soil. The four classic grape varieties that are used in Provence are: Grenache, Cinsault, Mourvèdre and Tibouren .
The Provence wine region is located in the southeast of France, the southern part of Provence de Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur. The climate is dry with a lot of wind, which makes the region very suitable for organic wine growing. The Côtes de Provence has developed into a paradise for rosé wine growing in recent decades. Particularly because of the pleasant climate and the beautiful surroundings, many investors and wealthy businessmen came to make excellent wines in a more than attractive environment. For example, there are fewer and fewer producers who supply to the cooperative, but they increasingly bottle and market the wine themselves. There is no wine growing in the northern part of Provence because of the high altitude of an average of 800 meters. Temperatures can drop well below freezing point there in winter. The soil conditions there are also not so suitable for wine growing. Back to some history: the name Provence comes from the Roman era; they called this region Provincia Nostra; in Dutch "our province". It was the first Roman province outside Italy.
The region is best known for its rosé wines, usually with a beautiful salmon pink colour, although Provencal white and spicy red wines also come from there. The surface of the vineyards used for wine growing is over 200 km² with a volume of 1,000,000 hectolitres of wine per year. Of that, approximately 60% is rosé, 30% red and 10% white .
It is not entirely 'out of the blue' that we from Domaine Drouët have included a beautiful rosé in our selection. The rosé, called Out of The Blue, both in magnum and 0.75l. bottles, is a stylish light, juicy rosé with a tasteful palette .
