Description
Château Paradis - Provence - AOP Côteaux d'Aix en Provence - White wine
The Sauvignon Blancs, more sensitive to drought, were planted on the lower parts of the estate. The structure of these soils, richer in clay, offers better water availability and greater resistance to drought. These soils allowed a maturation without water stress, thus favoring a beautiful aromatic expression of this grape variety. The Vermentinos, from the young plot planted in 2012, are also present and majority in the blend. The Grenache Blancs come from the historic plot of the estate that we call “Parcelle Paradis”. It is on the high and stony part of the vineyard and offers an exceptional quality due to the age of the vines (50 years).

Winemakingprocess
The Château Paradis white wine is the perfect combination of the elegance of Sauvignon Blanc and the delicacy of Vermentino. Harvesting is done by hand during the coolest hours of the day. After passing through cold water, the grapes are pressed and the juices are fermented at 16-17°C in thermo-regulated stainless steel tanks. We carry out a plot specific vinification in order to preserve the characters and the unique expression of each parcel and each grape variety. Ten days after the end of the fermentations, the wines are withdrawn and the blend is then determined.

About this company
In an exceptional setting, between the Sainte Victoire mountain and the Luberon, the Château Paradis vineyards stretch over 80 hectares in the heart of Provence, at the extreme north of the Coteaux d’Aix-en-Provence, in the commune of Puy-Sainte-Réparade. The estate boasts an exceptional range of terroirs that the various owners have been able to bring out over the years. Since 2011, Xavier and Odile Thieblin, who are attached to their Provençal roots, have been determined to add value to the estate and to strive for excellence. With the support of Michel Tardieu and Philippe Cambie, highly-regarded oenologists in the Rhône Valley, our team produces exceptional wines that reflect the authenticity and particularity of our terroir. Driven by a love of our craft, we strive to create unforgettable wine tourism experiences allowing visitors to discover both the vines and the wines.
Through our wines we wish, above all, to represent our identity and present you with the soul of our terroir. We therefore do everything we can to highlight the specific characteristics of our terroir and the different varieties of vines that grow there. Our team’s dedicated work in the vineyards allows us to harvest grapes at perfect maturity which only need to express their potential in the cellar during the winemaking process. It is through respecting this work, supported by Michel Tardieu and Philippe Cambie, that we are able to bring you wines with a terroir identity, the fruit of our painstaking endeavours. In the quest for a sustainable viticulture, we adopted a “reasoned” approach to wine growing. Our soils are carefully maintained to boost microbial life. The wine growing practices used are carried out with meticulous precision to obtain quality grapes.
