281 refers to the Pantone number for this royal blue color that elegantly cascades in a glaze down the side of the bottle. It evokes the sky and the sea of Minuty’s French Riviera home, in particular the deep blue that appears everywhere after the strong afternoon wind. 100% estate from a single old plot of Grenache whose clone is exclusive to Château Minuty, it is the ultimate reflection of their special seaside vineyard and Co?tes de Provence. 281 comes exclusively from the original estate vineyard, a half mile from the ocean and the Gulf of Saint-Tropez. The quality of this location has always been evident, as the estate was one of the original 18 classified growths in Provence. The grapes come from the single plot that inspired the Matton brothers to replant much of their estate and focus on the Grenache grape. This plot, you could say, is responsible for what great Co?tes de Provence rosé has become: a wine of aromatic complexity, beautiful and intense fruit, and seamless freshness.
