Domaines Ott Clos Mireille Coeur de Grain Rosé 2024 3L

Delicate coastal freshness and aristocratic Provençal heritage define the 2024 Domaines Ott Clos Mireille Cœur de Grain Rosé, drawn from the Clos Mireille estate set directly beside the Mediterranean shoreline at La Londe-les-Maures. The vineyards rest on schist soils facing the sea, where constant marine breezes moderate the heat and preserve acidity, giving the wine its distinctive saline lift.

A classic blend of Grenache, Cinsault and Rolle forms the backbone, crafted in the estate’s traditional Cœur de Grain style that emphasises purity, finesse and aromatic precision. Gentle pressing and temperature-controlled fermentation maintain clarity of fruit while careful élevage on fine lees provides subtle texture. The 2024 vintage shows a luminous pale rose-gold colour and a refined aromatic profile, immediately elegant yet quietly complex. In the glass, ripe orchard fruit and citrus tones are layered with floral and maritime nuances that speak directly to the vineyard’s seaside position.

Compared with many Provençal rosés, Clos Mireille offers greater structure and depth while remaining graceful and refreshing. The wine is particularly suited to fine seafood cuisine, where its minerality and brightness shine. Though irresistibly approachable in youth, it has the balance and concentration to develop further nuance over several years, especially in large-format bottle.
