Incroyablement complexe, ce vin dévoile une palette d’arômes riche et élégante. Se mêlent des arômes d’abricot, de fruits exotiques rehaussés par des notes de jasmin, la finale révèle de subtiles notes de gingembre et de vanille. La bouche présente un très bel équilibre et une longueur remarquable.

Terroir & culture
The Mira Luna terroir is characterized by clay-limestone soils and a dry Mediterranean climate benefiting from cool nights related to altitude
In the heart of Provence, in a hilly landscape where the earth takes a shade of red ochre hue, lies a place steeped in mystery and charm. Mira Luna estate is part of the historic Miraval estate and extends over nearly 100 hectares of rolling Provencal garrigue and pine and oak forest in the heart of which we cultivate our vineyards and olive trees.
This exceptional terroir allows the grape varieties to express themselves frankly and fully, producing wines that are fresh, aromatically complex and perfectly balanced.

Here, the crops are grown respectfully in organic farming and according to the principles of biodynamics, observing and listening to nature.
Cradle of the living, Mira Luna is located between Correns and Châteauvert, two municipalities of green Provence respectful of the environment, first 100% biological commune for one and located in protected area Natura 2000 for the other.
Oak and pine forests, poplar and streamside ash groves, meadows, scrubland of Juniper, Cistus, Thyme, Lavender and Rosemary: the richness of the habitats present within Mira Luna allows the animal and plant species it shelters to thrive.
Preserving this wealth is our priority and serves as a common thread in our agricultural practices: organic farming, plant cover, maintenance of open wild meadows, establishment of beehives, large protected areas, etc.
Harvest & Winemaking
Each step of the obtaining of our wines is carefully orchestrated to capture and offer you the quintessence of Nature.
Our grapes are harvested plot by plot at peak ripeness, after tasting by our oenologist and checking the sugar/acidity balance. Harvesting is done manually at night, with pressing in the early morning when temperatures are still cool.
Each plot is harvested and extracted separately.
The grapes are carefully sorted and gently pressed in whole bunches, and only the first fraction obtained by pressing is then transferred to different containers (amphorae, demi-muids, stainless steel vats) for each cuvée.
After vinification and ageing, the best cuvées are carefully selected by our talented oenologist to be blended and create our wine with precision and high standards.

A reinvented Rolle for a ‘haute couture’ wine
For this signature wine of remarkable complexity and finesse, we chose to reinvent the Rolle, Provence's emblematic grape variety, by blending a wide variety of cuvées by plot and ageing vessel:
- Plot-by-plot harvesting and pressing: two plots with different exposures and slightly different stages of ripeness
- Vinification and ageing in different containers: stainless steel for a fresh and direct cuvée, amphora for an authentic and elegant expression of Rolle's aromatic bouquet, two types of new French oak demi-muids with light toasting
- And finally, creation of a signature single-varietal wine through a precise blending of different plot and ageing container cuvées.
