The finesse and persistence of a Côtes de Provence rosé wine

The property

Founded in 1929 by André Chevillon on the foundations of a wine estate cultivated since antiquity, the Château Sainte-Marguerite extends over the terroir of La Londe-Les-Maures, a village on the Var coast. It obtained the classified growth of Provence in 1955, which highlights the authenticity, diversity and quality of its products. In 1977, Brigitte and Jean-Pierre Fayard acquired the estate, which at the time represented 11 hectares. Since 2022, the Fayard family has partnered with Pernod Ricard to continue the development of Sainte Marguerite in Provence and internationally.
