Almost half a century ago, Brigitte and Jean-Pierre Fayard acquired seven hectares of vines. When the Fayard family moved in, the estate had already been classified as a Cru Class\u00e9 des C\u00f4tes-de-Provence* since 1955, in recognition of the quality of its terroir, know-how and wines. Today, only 18 estates hold this title.<\/span><\/p>

Brigitte and Jean-Pierre Fayard recognized the potential of Provence wines early on. They have never ceased to raise their sights in terms of quality, actively contributing to giving Provence ros\u00e9 wine its letters of nobility. A mission in which the whole family has since invested: to make the Ch\u00e2teau Sainte Marguerite name shine. <\/span>producing top-quality ros\u00e9, white and red wines. A demanding, uncompromising path.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

Since the seven hectares purchased in 1977, the Ch\u00e2teau Sainte Marguerite vineyard has grown considerably. It has been built up over time, patiently, according to the quality of the terroirs and the selection of grape varieties. With more than 450 hectares today, the estate extends over 25 kilometers, in the most outstanding terroirs of the C\u00f4tes-de-Provence AOC, and supplies all the grapes needed to make the estate's wines. This enables Ch\u00e2teau Sainte Marguerite to guarantee absolute mastery and exceptional quality, from the vine to the glass.<\/span><\/p>

Ch\u00e2teau Sainte Marguerite is one of the 18 Crus Class\u00e9s estates in the C\u00f4tes-de-Provence region, and the only one to offer 100% organic and vegan wines with the Fantastique and Marguerites cuv\u00e9es.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Twenty parcels spread over 25 kilometers: a rare feature in the C\u00f4tes-de-Provence PDO. This diversity of terroirs, between La Londe and Pierrefeu, is a real asset for the wine. No two plots enjoy identical exposure, climate and soil. This enables Olivier and Enzo Fayard to compose precisely from a complete aromatic palette when they create their blends.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

To ensure its singular signature, the domaine looks for Grenache that brings aromatic intensity around white-fleshed and exotic fruits, also citrus, and generosity, as well as a beautiful silky texture.<\/span><\/p>

Cinsault brings finesse, delicacy and subtlety to Ch\u00e2teau Sainte Marguerite ros\u00e9 wines. Rolle (or Vermentino) completes the aromatic framework of the blend with a touch of pear, lemon and grapefruit, and gives it a limpid color.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
