The French Riviera’s favourite rosé: so St Tropez! Cru Classé Chateau Minuty Prestige Rosé 2023: ‘Summer in a glass’ say the Decanter World Wine Awards judges: case of six bottles delivered
Original price was: £126.00.£99.00Current price is: £99.00.
Chateau Minuty 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’.
This Prestige Minuty is everything you could want from a Provençal rosé from a flagship estate with Cru Classé status: it has just won the Silver Medal in the Decanter World Wine Awards, the judges noting: ‘Wild strawberry and grassy hay aromas, with some leafy herbs and redcurrant. Delicately fruited with a nice, creamy texture. Summer in a glass!’
The wine is a shimmering pale pink, crisp, strong, clean and lingering on the palate, with dominant flavours of tangy red berries followed by notes of apricot. Its earthy aftertaste is ideal for seafoods including shellfish platters. Fish ceviche and sushi, California rolls and grilled fish work equally well. Also try it with classic Italian trattoria dishes such as veal Milanese and spaghetti alle vongole or Provençale specialities such as stuffed vegetables or vegetable stacks.

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 in the terroir of this exceptionally sunny region. The style is all Saint-Tropez.
Château Minuty Prestige is made from Provence grapes that have been picked and sorted by hand. It blends Grenache (70%) for its elegant aromas and Syrah (15%) for its aromatic complexity. Cinsault (5%) is added for its vibrancy, while Rolle (10%) —a top Provence white grape variety chosen for its earthy aromas—finishes off the blend.
Winemaking temperatures are carefully monitored so they remain low enough to lock in the grapes’ aromatic potential but high enough to bring out their subtleties.
