North South Wines welcomes Provence Rosé Estate Château Sainte Roseline to its fold
Bicester, Oxfordshire – North South Wines, the B Corp-certified wine importer, is strengthening its French portfolio through a new partnership with Château Sainte Roseline. The prestigious Provençal Domaine will be exclusively distributed by North South Wines in the UK, with an initial selection of five wines landing in the country this week.
Château Sainte Roseline is a one-of-a-kind producer. Nestled in the heart of Provence – a stone’s throw from St Tropez – this exceptional estate is both a protected site and, since 1955, a Cru Classé: a rare and prestigious distinction. Of its 160 hectares, 110 are dedicated to the vineyards rich in clay-limestone soils, cooled by the Mediterranean breeze. From this unique terroir come wines of remarkable complexity, combining aromatic intensity, freshness, and roundness.
Since 2007, under the leadership of Aurélie Bertin-Teillaud, the Domaine has elegantly blended tradition with modernity. Contemporary art exhibitions are regularly held among the estate’s 11th century chapel and 12th century cloister, creating a stunning cultural backdrop. A visionary, Aurélie has preserved the region’s winemaking heritage while enriching it with a sustainable and responsible approach, making the estate a model of organic viticulture. Château Sainte Roseline was the first Estate to be certified “Vignerons Engagés*” in Provence (*sustainable winemaking).
Kim Wilson, Founder and Managing Director of North South Wines, said: “Provence Rosé plays such an important role in the premiumisation of the wine category. It attracts a fun-loving yet discerning, valuable shopper with high-expectations. It was key for us to find the right partner – one that delivers on brand desirability while aligning with North South Wines’ values. A winery holding a Cru Classé designation fits in perfectly within our premium French portfolio. We are very excited to be working with the Château Sainte Roseline team.’
Patrick Pouvatchy, Export Manager for Château Sainte Roseline, added: “We are glad to start our partnership with North South Wines in the UK, our common vision of Sustainability, Corporate Social Responsibility commitments and the core values we share, and the central pillars of our partnership. It is a strategical and ethical choice to start our partnership together and we truly believe the market will positively answer to our approach.”
North South Wines is importing four rosés and one white from the Domaine: Perle De Roseline Rosé, Roseline Prestige Rosé; the organic Cru Classé ones: Lampe De Méduse White and Rosé, and the exclusive boutique-wine: Cuvée La Chapelle Rosé.
