2006 Chateau Miraval White contains strong citrus and white flower flavors, with a slight almond aftertaste. Composed of 95% Rolle and 5% Grenache Blanc, the 2006 Château Miraval White has an almost uncommon full body, providing a delectable lingering flavor.

Château Miraval has certified organic vineyards in the adjoining communes of Correns and Chateauvert and produces wines under two appellations, AOC Côtes de Provence and AOC Côteaux Varois. The soil is a mixture of clay and chalk with small stones and the gently sloping vineyards extend along the basin of a sheltered wooded valley, where water flows in abundance and where recently excavated old stone roman drains carry the water away. The estate, situated at an altitude of 350 meters (1150 ft.), extends to 400 HA (1000 acres) with 30 HA (75 acres) devoted to vines. The vineyards flourish on the valley floor, protected by the surrounding forest of evergreen and white oak, and parasol, aleppo and maritime pine.

Château Miraval - A brief history Miraval, sited close to the Via Aurelia - one of the five main roads radiating from Rome - has always occupied an important place in history. First settled by the Ligurians and then by the Celts, who were in their turn driven out by the advancing Romans, Miraval first appears on a map in the 1200s when it was a monastery and attached to the Pignans Monastery. In 1252, it seems probable that St. Thomas Acquinas broke his journey here en route to the University of Paris from the University of Naples. In the 1400s the Prince of Naples joined the French Court and settled at Miraval. This was when the Domaine first appears in the Register of Noble Houses…”one of many fountains...stone-walled terraces”. The Estate was in the hands of the Orsini family for centuries and then, at the turn of the twentieth century, Miraval was home to the celebrated inventor of reinforced concrete - Joseph Lambot. In the 1970s Jacques Loussier, the well-known jazz pianist, created one of the world's foremost recording studios - Studio Miraval - where many great musicians including Pink Floyd, Sting, Sade and the Cranberries have all recorded their music in idyllic surroundings.
