Château Simone
About
The only estate that truly defines the tiny Palette appellation near Aix-en-Provence, Château Simone has been in the Rougier family since 1830. Their red, white, and rosé are aged in underground cellars carved into the hillside, producing wines with remarkable depth and complexity that stand apart from typical Provençal rosé.
Why It's a Hidden Gem
Virtually the entire Palette appellation in one estate, making some of Provence's most serious and age-worthy wines far from the rosé clichés.
