Listel is above all a strong story told for over 100 years. It was in 1883 that the Salins du Midi, owners of large expanses of sand in the Camargue, decided to plant the first vines on the “Isles de Stel”, a plot that gave its name to the emblematic rosé: Listel.
The Grain de Gris Rosé is a delicate rosé that makes you want to breathe it gently, a wine that coaxes the taste buds before stimulating them with fruity and spices notes.
The story began with Michel Chapoutier, a unique man with a thirst for knowledge, definitely one of a kind. He seeks to discover and reflect the full potential of his terroirs and let the soils express their true character.
This now forms the basis of the M. CHAPOUTIER ethos to reveal the very best of what the soils have to offer.

Mostly aged in concrete vats, Avarum in the Vacqueyras appellation, is a blend of Grenache and Mourvèdre. We find an intense and generous nose, with notes of black fruits and spices. The mouth, full of freshness, is rich and ample, with silky and elegant tannins, for a long smoky finish. A delight!

It was in Latour de France that M.Chapoutier chose to set up his domain. The vines of Bila-Haut and Occultum Lapidem were the first expressions of this terroir. The story continued near a little village called Lesquerde. Steep, craggy limestone, arid soil, battered by the tramontane wind…

As Marius, Michel Chapoutier’s great-grandfather, always said ‘A good wine is one that beckons us to take another sip’.
These wines carry this message and reflect the warmth of the southern France terroirs in which they are rooted.
The Grenaches of this rosé are located on clay-limestone slopes, while the Cinsaults and the Syrahs grow in predominantly sandy soils. All harvested when fully ripe, and at night to ensure they retain their fruitiness and freshness.

This blend of Grenache and Shiraz and Mataro is an homage to the great wines of the Southern Rhone but with a very Barossa accent. These three classic red wine varieties are blended to showcase the unique qualities of each whilst ensuring balance, purity of fruit and the utmost drinkability.
The three Springs Vineyard is located alongside the original Schild Family Estate: planted in 1926 the Grenache vines are classified as ‘Survivour Vines’ in the Barossa Valley Old Vine Charter. The Mataro is grown in ‘Kleeman’s Block’ where vines are high on the Eastern Hills overlooking Rowland Flat. Shiraz is taken from the Hermann’s Vineyards taking premium fruit from each to blend into this typical GSM.
