Description
The vineyards are situated at an altitude of 350 metres on sheltered terraces. The soil consists mainly of clay and limestone. The cuvée is composed of cinsault, grenache, syrah and rolle. Rolle is the same grape variety as the vermentino known in Italy. 10% of the wine was matured in old wooden barrels to give the wine character and creaminess. The grapes are picked by hand in 35kg crates. In the chateau the grapes are selected and given a very mild pressing and even for the Miraval Blanc only free-flow juice is used.
The Miraval Provence Rosé is made from organically grown grapes. The wine is a blend of mainly Grenache with a small amount of Cinsault, Syrah and Rolle. The Miraval rosé is a very lively rosé with concentrated flavors. This Miraval Rosé is the best rosé of the estate (the wine is made by the top notch team of Chateau Beaucastel). The light pink colored Côtes de Provence Miraval Rosé has a fresh and lively bouquet of wild strawberries, raspberries and white flowers and gives a smooth, silky feeling in the mouth with a fine structure, beautiful mandarin and peach nuances. The finish contains fruity berry nuances. After one sip, another sip is hard to resist. Absolutely great rosé which has also been rewarded with no less than 90 Parker points (vintage 2018).
Now, the highly respected wine magazine Wine Spectator has ranked Pitt and Jolie's Provence Rosé Miraval at number 84 on its 100 best wines of 2013. The jury report describes the wine as 'elegant' with 'pure and concentrated flavours of dried red berry, mandarin and melon'. The names behind this rosé have certainly contributed to it becoming the most sought-after rosé, but it is fair to say that this is an absolute serious class rosé that belongs in the premier league in the ranks of Chateau Camparnaud, Domaine Ott, Chateau D'Esclans and Minuty.
The Miraval is a great aperitif but also goes very well with lobster, shellfish, white pasta dishes or a delicious salad and highly recommended with sushi or spicy food. The time is over that you only drink rose in the summer because these kinds of levels such as Domaines Ott and Chateau Camparnaud are serious wines that are perfect all year round and certainly also gastronomically perfect.
Château Miraval was owned by Jacques Loussier, jazz pianist and wine lover, since 1970. He produced the Miraval rosé under the name Pink Floyd. A few years ago, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt rented Château Miraval for a period of three years. In the meantime, the Château was bought by the Hollywood couple in 2008. The wine cellar dates from the early 19th century and was renovated in the 1990s; the wooden barrels rest in the cellar of the original farm (around 1300) that was completely renovated in 1995. The vineyards around the Château are situated on a slope at an altitude of 350 meters, which makes the Miraval wines so elegant and refined. The rosé is the result of a collaboration between the Hollywood couple and the respected wine family Perrin, one of the largest and most successful wine families in the world. They are especially famous for their world-class wine estate Château de Beaucastel on the Rhône. This is where art and knowledge come together. And that is exactly what the wines of Jolie-Pitt & Perrin reflect. Together they have big plans for the future in making organic wines.

Bottled just a few weeks before my visit, Miraval's 2018 Cotes de Provence Rose was in fine form. A blend of 50% Grenache, 30% Cinsault, 10% Syrah and 10% Rolle, it boasts floral and melon aromas, while on the palate, it's medium-bodied, plump and fleshy, with a zesty, tangerine-tinged finish.
After initialing and signing a six-page nondisclosure agreement under the eye of a security guard who may or may not have been ex-special forces (I can neither confirm nor deny that), I'm not sure exactly what I can tell you about this wonderful property. Since my last visit, close to ten years ago (pre Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie), the vineyards have been completely renovated, with some sections uprooted and replanted, new parcels developed or under development, and the winery interior has been drastically redone. Marc Perrin made the drive over from his office at Château de Beaucastel to show me around and taste through the wines. When fully developed, he said, there will be approximately 80 to 90 hectares of vines on the property's 800 hectares, leaving a lot of native forest as a buffer. That forest means a healthy population of wild boars, which need to be controlled through hunting and electric fences. Perrin's excitement as we toured the property was palpable. "It's a little bit like when we started Tablas Creek," he said. "A new experience." Although the rosé market has been growing rapidly in the past few years, he said he thinks it's just the beginning, as it has yet to catch on in Asia. There are three different rosés: Studio, from purchased grapes grown closer to the sea; the main rosé, from a mix of estate grapes and purchased fruit from neighbors; and Muse, a new, limited-production wine only from estate fruit. There's a bit of estate-grown white wine as well and an impressive Syrah grown on steep terraces. Perrin says there are no plans to commercialize the red at this time, so you'll just have to work your Hollywood connections to wangle an invitation from the celebrity owners.
"Rosé uit de Provence wereldwijd het populairst. Opmerkelijk genoeg echter in het assortiment van Miraval voordeliger dan hun witen rood. Minder van kwaliteit dan? Beslist niet. Tot in de puntjes verzorgde wijn. Het te verwachten pipsroze. Maar met een goede, pittige vulling. Met aantrekkelijk, vers rood fruit. Een puntje perzik en het zachtkruidige van de Zuid-Franse ambiance. Nog iets over de huidige eigenaren Brad Pitt en Angelina Jolie zeggen? Dat laten we graag aan RTL Boulevard over." Beoordeeld met een 8,5 door Harold Hamersma in De Grote Hamersma 2018.

Château Miraval is the rock star among the vineyards of Provence. That is not only due to the image of the winery, in which the Hollywood stars Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt live with their families.
"Sting" and "The Cranberries" were already guests in the recording studio in the house. But the highlight is the creation of the song “The Wall” by Pink Floyd at Château Miraval! The Perrin winemaker family, itself a star in the international wine industry, is an important part of this because of its excellent wine. The winemaker Marc Perrin is responsible for the wines at the Château Miraval, while the Jolie-Pitt family provides the necessary prestige.
The climate in which Château Miraval is located is Mediterranean, the grapes grow here at an altitude of 350 meters on protected, landscaped terraces. Warm, sunny weather during the day, alternates with cool nights, giving the grapes a lot of freshness and balance. The terroir is influenced by clay and lime, which provide the plants with water on one side and drains abundant water on the other, thus producing healthy, ripened grapes.
The Château Miraval and the surrounding village of Correns are the first “organic village” in all of France. In the meanwhile world-famous rosé from Château Miraval, a Blend of Cinsault, Grenache, Syrah and Rolle is made. For the creamy content of the Rosé wine from Château Miraval, 10% of the wine is aged in old wooden barrels. A fruity, very convincing taste and concept rosé wine, in which creativity and beauty can come together in a gentle elegance. It is not always successful when a famous person or family commits to a wine, although there are many good examples (just think of Bocelli with his wines), but in the case of Miraval, the wine was already of top quality before Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt bought the domain and luckily they also left the making of the beautiful Miraval Rose and Miraval Blanc to the experts. Both the Miraval rose and the white wine version of the Miraval are among the top of the Provence wines. The problem is that the worldwide demand for the Miraval rose is unprecedentedly large and that wine estate certainly cannot meet the demand, so supply is certainly limited and advice is to store this in time. We had periods with a nice early spring when the Miraval rosé was already sold out in May.
