The 2024 Maison Saint Aix Dry Rosé 3L is a large-format Provence rosé designed for sharing, produced from organically farmed vineyards in the elevated hills of Coteaux d’Aix-en-Provence. Crafted from a classic blend of Grenache, Syrah and Cinsault, the wine reflects the fresh, mineral-driven style that has made Maison Saint Aix one of the most recognised rosé producers in Provence. The nose is bright and expressive, showing aromas of white peach, citrus peel and wild berries alongside subtle floral notes and delicate wet stone minerality.
On the palate, it is light to medium-bodied with crisp acidity and a smooth, finely textured mouthfeel. Flavours of grapefruit, red berries and orchard fruit are supported by a refreshing mineral edge and subtle savoury detail that keeps the wine dry and balanced throughout. Cool fermentation in stainless steel and careful direct pressing help preserve freshness and aromatic purity, while the large 3L format maintains the wine’s lively fruit character and makes it particularly suited to group dining and entertaining. The finish is clean, vibrant and persistent with citrus-driven length and saline freshness.
Ben’s Recommendation: At Wine More Cellars, this 3L Maison Saint Aix Rosé is an excellent option for customers looking for a fresh, dry and versatile Provence rosé in a format ideal for entertaining and long lunches. Particularly well suited to seafood platters, grilled prawns, fresh salads, charcuterie or Mediterranean-style dishes. Best enjoyed well chilled while youthful and vibrant over the next 1–2 years.
