Domaines Ott Clos Mireille Côtes de Provence Rosé 2025

Overview

Domaines Ott was founded in 1896 by Alsatian engineer Marcel Ott. Today, the wineries are owned and managed by Champagne Louis Roederer, producing some of the world’s most prestigious wines. These wines are made at three distinctively different estates: Château Romassan (Bandol), Clos Mireille and Château de Selle (both Côtes de Provence).

Clos Mireille is the second estate acquired by the Ott family in 1936. Clos Mireille is in an exceptional location on the Mediterranean coast, in La Londe les Maures, where the average vine age is 17 years. This is idyllic Provence. Its ancient soil, a mixture of schist and limestone-free clay, benefits from a microclimate permeated by sea spray, which explains the inimitable character of the wines produced from the 124 acres at Clos Mireille.

Domaines Ott wines are certified organic starting with the 2022 vintage. 

Winemaking

The grapes are all hand-picked, followed by strict and selective sorting. Extremely delicate pressing extracts the best of the grapes and color; there is short skin contact in the press. Slow fermentation takes place followed by aging in thermo-regulated stainless steel vats. Bottling is done the following spring.

Tasting Notes

Bright appearance with a light, slightly salmony pink hue. Luscious nose of fresh apricot, complemented by floral notes and a hint of citrus. Juicy palate, with aromas of white nectarine. Taut finish with delicate notes of lemon zest.

Harvest Notes

Marked contrasts in weather: an exceptionally wet winter and spring followed by a very hot, dry summer. Early harvest with increased vigilance. The wines display a fine balance between freshness and aromatic expression.
