Selladore White – Domaine Saint Jean de Villecroze

Selladore White 2025 is a Provence wine that bottles the freshness of the Haut-Var hills: a bright, mineral white from the Coteaux Varois, as good with an aperitif as it is at the table. It comes from Domaine Saint Jean de Villecroze, owned by the Maurel family.

Domaine Saint Jean de Villecroze

In the Haut-Var, at the foot of the village of Villecroze, the estate covers 35 hectares, 12.5 of them under vine, around a chapel dating back to 1007. Taken over in 2025 by the Maurel family, winegrowers since 1802, it is converting to organic farming. Grapes are picked by hand and at night, to keep all their freshness and the precision of their aromas. Selladore is the estate’s Signature range, sitting between the easy-going Collection de la Lune wines and its gastronomic cuvées.

The wine: Selladore White, AOP Coteaux Varois en Provence

Selladore White blends two grape varieties, Rolle (also known as Vermentino) and Sémillon. The grapes are hand-picked at night, while they are still cool. The destemmed berries are pressed at low temperature and the juice is fermented in stainless-steel tanks. No oak: everything is aimed at keeping the fruit and the tension.

Tasting notes

The colour is pale and bright, with slight green hints. The nose opens on orange blossom and mandarin zest, followed by light honeyed notes. On the palate, the attack is clean and vibrant. Fine minerality carries the dominant citrus flavours through to a refreshing finish.

Food pairing

Serve it with sea bream ceviche, oysters, a burrata and citrus salad or grilled fish. It is also lovely on its own as an aperitif, to make the most of its freshness.
