VALÉRIE ROUSSELLE, THE OWNER OF CHÂTEAU ROUBINE THE VINEYARDS AT CHÂTEAU ROUBINE Well-known since the 14th century, it was owned by the Order of the Knights Templar before being passed on to the Knights Hospitaller then to a number of Provence families. “Our estate is one of Provence’s 18 historic Crus Classés”, explains the winery’s owner Valérie Rousselle. “We have the good fortune of being able to offer our visitors a unique setting of 72 hectares of unbroken vineyards which form a natural amphitheatre lined by pine trees and cork oak. Our wines have always displayed unique features stemming both from the use of old Provencal grape varieties and sensitive winemaking methods where temperatures are kept under control”. The programme of wine tourism activities is varied and robust, recounting the history, the varietal range and the unique aspects of the chateau from the terrace of the cellar door shop with its sweeping views out over the vineyards. Visitors then take a deep dive into the world of wine production as they enter the private doors to the winery. They discover the secrets of how Crus Classés wines are crafted, following the journey of grapes from the vineyards to their arrival at the winery, through the winemaking process and up to bottling. A vineyard trail takes them on an educational and historical walk to learn about the winery’s unique terroir with a thirteen-point itinerary that mirrors its thirteen grape varieties. “Increasingly, our customers are looking for authentic experiences”, continues Rousselle. “We are lucky in that we are one of the largest production facilities owned by a Provencal family, which is one of our strong points. We try and capitalise on sustainability as much as possible and on aspects of nature which are strengths at the winery. We have been practitioners of biodynamic farming for several years and also plan to build an eco-friendly hotel as well as a restaurant that favours local products served in the heart of our vineyards”. 12 SUMMER 2023 • GILBERT & GAILLARD - THE FRENCH EXPERTS ON WINE
