Famille Perrin
Nestled amongst the rolling hills of Correns, Château Miraval is now one of Provence’s best-known wine estates. This historic estate combines the beauty of the South of France with a clear vision for modern, high-quality rosé wines, and has gained international renown thanks to Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie.
In partnership with the renowned Perrin family, whose Château de Beaucastel ranks among France’s most prestigious estates, Miraval has become one of Provence’s most sought-after producers of rosé. Today, Brad Pitt remains associated with the estate, whilst the Perrin family, drawing on their decades of expertise, continues to shape the style and quality of the wines.
Rosé wines from Famille Perrin
from Famille Perrin
The vineyards benefit from a Mediterranean climate with plenty of sunshine and the cooling Mistral wind. Limestone and clay soils, together with the location around Correns, create ideal conditions for fresh and expressive wines. The main grape varieties grown are the typical Provençal varieties Grenache, Cinsault, Syrah and Rolle, which lend the wines their elegance, finesse and aromatic expressiveness.
Miraval embodies a modern Provençal style: elegant and aromatic wines with plenty of freshness and subtle minerality. The rosés, in particular, delight with their lightness and sophistication, combining the relaxed way of life of the South of France with a touch of Hollywood.

Sette Cieli
It isn’t easy to ascend to seventh heaven. And indeed, the road to the wine estate Sette Cieli is fraught with some difficulties. You might need to take a few detours (seventh heaven isn’t on Google Maps’ radar), but the Ratti family’s wine paradise is more than worth the effort.

Weingut Schloss Gobelsburg
The first written evidence of Schloss Gobelsburg dates from 1074, but it was in 1171 that the Cistercian monks from the Zwettl monastery obtained the first vineyards at Heiligenstein and at Gaisberg in the Kamptal. Visitors entering the baroque-style complex built on a slight mound sense this tradition, this spirit, this experience accumulated over the centuries. The view takes in all the surroundings, from the village of Gobelsburg to the vine-covered hills of Heiligenstein. Inside, near the parish church where couples say yes for life, when the weather is pleasant, the pretty and romantic garden invites all to rest for a while.
