Château Simone - White - Magnum 2020
Château Simone is located in the town of Meyreuil, in the small appellation of Palette in Provence . It has belonged to the Rougier family since 1830. Its exposed location on the northern slope of the Montaiguet massif, in a cirque protected from the winds and crossed by the Arc, gives it the benefit of a particular microclimate . The vineyard is influenced by the biodiversity of the forest environment, the supply of humidity from the river and its mass of greenery, the direction and attenuation of the force of the winds.
