PROVIDENCE, a name that sounds like Provence. After 15 years of experience in different professional worlds, Jean Benoit and Bénédicte acquired in 2017 an 18-hectare vineyard estate in AOP Coteaux d'Aix en Provence. Organic certification was obtained in 2020. He restructured the estate by planting 11 varieties of white grape varieties! The vines in black grape varieties have an average age of 35 years and for some more than 55 years. The vineyard is distinguished by exceptional trellising, natural grassing every other row and sowing with green manure. Soil work is limited to the foot, to limit compaction. First vintage in 2020 at the estate following the development of a cellar. The harvest is manual in crates, the vinification is carried out in whole bunches by gravity, the reds undergo a cold pre-fermentation of more than 7 days without crushing or punching down, the fermentation is carried out in indigenous yeasts without any inputs. Sulfur is added only at the end of malolactic fermentation or at bottling. All the wines, including the whites and rosés, are aged in eggs or 500 L barrels for 6 months. 3 Red cuvées have been created, all of which have a common trait: Cinsault. Their name evokes our history: Providence, Chemin Faisant, à l’Aventure. An atypical rosé vinified and aged in barrels. First white cuvée in 2021 with an Ugni, Vermentino, Clairette blend. The key word is the expression of the grape variety and to honor Cinsault and Carignan. A promising terroir for future white wines. Production of the estate: 15/20,000 bottles/year.
