Provence
Chateau Barbebelle is one of the oldest vineyards in Aix-en-Provence. The Herbeau family own and farm around 45 hectares of sun-soaked vines, with Madeleine, the fourth generation winemaker in the family, now at the helm alongside her husband Valentin Premmereur and oenologist Thomas Bernard. They produce consistently outstanding rosé year in and year out, while still maintaining sustainable farming and vinification practices.
