Château Simone Blanc 2022- Palette
Château Simone White is an absolute icon. This gastronomic wine from the Palette appellation is based on a complex blend dominated by Clairette (80%), complemented by Grenache Blanc, Bourboulenc, and rare local varieties. Grown on limestone scree and North-facing slopes to preserve unique freshness, it is aged for 18 months in oak foudres. The result is a wine of sovereign elegance, blending notes of white flowers, fresh almond, and saline minerality. Its broad structure and legendary aging potential (20+ years) make it an exceptional white, rivaling the greatest Burgundy or Rhone crus. A masterpiece of complexity and persistence.

The Finest White Wine of Provence Château Simone White is an extraordinary wine. Its uniqueness lies in its exceptional terroir and ancestral winemaking methods, giving it an inimitable personality.
Terroir and Winemaking:
-
Exposure: The vines are located on north-facing slopes in the shadow of Mount Sainte-Victoire, allowing for slow ripening and preserving crystalline acidity.
-
Varieties: Mostly Clairette, blended with Grenache Blanc, Bourboulenc, Ugni Blanc, and hints of Muscat Blanc, Picpoul, Furmint, and Terret Gris.
-
Aging: Fermentation in small oak foudres followed by 18 months of aging, then additional rest in bottles within the estate’s underground cellars before release.
Tasting Notes:
-
Nose: Intense and complex, featuring white-fleshed fruits (pear), garrigue flowers, pine, and a hint of white truffle with age.
-
Palate: A masterful balance between richness and tension. The texture is dense, almost oily, yet always carried by an immense mineral freshness.
Food Pairings: It calls for refined dishes: lobster Armorica-style, noble fish in cream sauce (turbot, sole), braised sweetbreads, or Bresse chicken with morels.
