Description
Producing wines since Roman times, the estate is owned by the Roozen family, who continually strive to make delicious wines whilst protecting their environment.
Val Joanis is a beautiful estate of 400 hectares with stunning gardens and views over the Lubéron.
The 120 hectares of vineyard spread over the hills at altitudes ranging from 280m to 450m, the site of the famous plot ‘Les Griottes’. The vineyards also benefit from a sunny exposure and enjoy a favourable microclimate with late ripening, giving the wines freshness and balance.

Pretty pale pink colour. Lively, crisp and fresh, well-balanced. Gorgeous aromas of red berries and citrus fruit. Vegan.
Food Pairing
Beautiful aperitif. It pairs well with asparagus, artichokes, chicken, crab cakes and seafood. Also a great accompaniment to Provencal food, anchovies, grilled sardines and tapenade.
