Location: Coteaux d’Aix-en-Provence AOP, France
Tasting Notes: A luminous, barely-there blush pink hints at the delicacy within. The nose opens with white peach, lychee, and citrus blossom—airy and floral, like a Provençal garden in early summer. On the palate, it’s crisp and mineral-driven, with notes of grapefruit zest, melon, and a whisper of wild strawberry. A subtle sparkle lifts the finish, leaving a clean, refreshing echo.
Notes: “Première” is more than a name—it’s a statement of intent. This is Pigoudet’s flagship rosé, crafted to showcase the estate’s precision and elegance. Dry, expressive, and effortlessly drinkable, it’s the kind of wine that turns a casual sip into a sensory experience.
Food Pairing: Ideal with shellfish platters, grilled Mediterranean vegetables, chèvre salads, or rosemary-roasted chicken. Its brightness makes it a natural companion to summer fare, but it’s versatile enough to elevate even a simple picnic.
Winery Story: Château Pigoudet is a hidden gem in the hills of northern Provence, where altitude and artistry meet. The estate has built its reputation on crafting rosés that are both technically refined and emotionally resonant. “Première” is the culmination of that philosophy—a wine that speaks of place, precision, and Provençal joy. With each vintage, Pigoudet reaffirms its role as a quiet leader in the inland rosé renaissance.
