A Cru Classé of Provence, Château Sainte-Marguerite is nestled in an enchanting natural setting, crafting exquisite gastronomic rosés from the exceptional terroir of Londe-les-Maures.
Pioneering a bold and innovative style, the Fayard family anticipated the rise of exceptional rosés long before it became a trend. They created a benchmark concept: a very pale rosé celebrated for its remarkable freshness and citrus notes.
Sainte Marguerite has now become a sanctuary in Provence. This "terroir de feu" – a dazzling mosaic of schist, quartz, clay, and silica soils – combined with 80-year-old Grenache vines and organic farming practices, produces wines of exceptional finesse.
