About the producer: Cellier Saint Sidoine
The cellier Saint Sidoine has been producing wines since the early 1920s. At the time the cooperative was known as the “Pugétoise”. In 1987, it was renamed after Puget-Ville’s tower known as Sidoine, that is surrounded by vineyards and dating back to the eleventh century. Sidoine was a man born blind, healed by Jesus, who would come to Provence to preach the faith. Today no less than 182 members grow grapes to produce mainly rosé wine under the Côtes de Provence AOC.
