This is the top-selling rosé in St Tropez and the whole of the French Riveria—a part of the world that really knows its rosé. Andrew Jefford of the Financial Times names Château Minuty one of the ‘masters of pink’.
Château Minuty M Rosé is everything you could want from a Provençal rosé from a flagship estate with Cru Classé status: the wine is dry, refreshing, elegant and utterly delicious. This, the newly released 2023 vintage is aromatic and harmonious, bright, light and intense, offering crisp, juicy fruits which are round and appetising on the palate, while a slight touch of sweetness tempers this vivacious vintage.
Matthew Jukes writes, ‘With its funky bottle which makes you want to jet off to the French Riviera immediately, and its beautiful pale hue and delicate wild strawberry nose, this is a delightful and scrumptious, classy rosé.’
Located in the centre of the Saint-Tropez peninsula, Château Minuty is at the heart of St Tropez winemaking. Its 65 hectares are traditionally cultivated (no herbicides, no pesticides) to allow the full expression of traditional Provençe varieties—Grenache, Cinsault and Syrah—in the terroir of this exceptionally sunny region. The style is all Saint-Tropez.
Perfect as an aperitif, it combines beautifully with Mediterranean and summer food, with tapas and with classic salads such as tomato and mozzarella or salade niçoise, and seafood in particular prawns and other shellfish. This is a perfect wine to serve at your next summer party—particularly at this sizzling Club Members’ exclusive price!

Château Minuty:
Nestled between land and sea in the heart of Provençe, Château Minuty has been the wine estate of the Matton-Farnet family for more than 85 years over four generations and has been a Côtes de Provence Classified Growth since 1955.
The vineyard of Château Minuty is remarkably well exposed on the hillsides of the villages of Gassin and Ramatuelle, overlooking the Gulf of Saint-Tropez. It benefits from a temperate maritime climate and gives pride of place to southern grape varieties.
For a wine from the estate, it all starts in the vineyard, in a preserved environment. The Château’s vines are cultivated using sustainable methods, without weedkillers or pesticides, as part of a continuous improvement process to reduce the impact of its activities on the environment.
Château Minuty is one of the last estates in the Côtes de Provence where the grapes are harvested entirely by hand to ensure their perfect integrity. Jean-Etienne and François Matton, who are deeply attached to their land, are at the helm of the operation and have inherited their know-how and expertise from their family.
Minuty M, Blend and origin:
Grapes from all the continental and seafront Côtes de Provence terroirs have gone into crafting this excellent vintage. Grenache (60%), Cinsault (30%) and Syrah (10%) grapes all feature in the final blend. The grapes have all been grown with HEV certification (High Environmental Value) with specific ground cover based on soil type and exposure.
Château Minuty is one of Provence’s last vineyards to hand-pick grapes. This is followed by cold pressing and fermenting—with no malolactic fermentation.
