Domaines Ott Clos Mireille Rose 2023
(Cotes de Provence, France) - [WE 94] [JS 92] [DM 91]

About the Winery:

Domaines Ott was founded in 1912 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: Chateau Romassan (Bandol), Clos Mireille and Chateau de Selle (both Cotes de Provence).

Clos Mireille is an ancient terrain distinguished for its combination of schists and clays, and by an absence of limestone. The vineyard's proximity to the sea explains the inimitable character of the wines produced at Clos Mireille. The microclimate and sea spray create the ideal conditions for the production of extremely rare wines. Clos Mireille has 124 acres of planted vineyards.

Ratings & Reviews

94 Points - Wine Enthusiast:
"Bright and fresh aromas of peach, melon and violets immediately spring forward with notes of stone and earth in the background. This mouthfilling wine displays a wide range of complex flavors including grapefruit, pear, white strawberry, and jasmine, all supported by a earthy mineral base. The wine has yet to show off its true character and will be even better starting warmer months of 2025."

92 Points - James Suckling:
"A delicious, well-rounded and tangy rosé exhibiting aromas of raspberries, candied berries and warm spices. It’s medium-bodied with fresh acidity. Succulent and tangy with a fruity finish. From organically grown grapes." (Jan 2025) 

91 Points - Decanter Magazine:
“From one of the three Ott estates, with vineyards running down to the beach and cooled by maritime winds comes this palest of pale rosés. Starting delicately, before opening out to notes of orange, perfumed citrus, crunchy red berries, a taut, briney elegance and salted peaches. The saline minerality jostles with pretty but intense concentration and jubilant acidity. Perfumed, juicy and mouthwatering freshness with lovely varietal expression from this blend of Grenache, Cinsault and Rolle." - Elizabeth Gabay MW (Jun 2024)
