In the “city of a thousand fountains”, wineries such as today’s Maison Saleya, much like the Sabine from a few weeks ago, enjoy the distinct advantage of nearly 300 meters in altitude. At these heights, the cooler, windier nights allow for slow steady development, extended hangtimes and yield grapes with perfect acidic balance.
Maison Saleya combines the wonderful terroir of the Coteaux d’Aix with a terrific winemaking team, so I’m never surprised by all the high scores and all the accolades like last year’s “Best Buy” from Wine & Spirits Magazine.
With the Rose market coming back after last year’s shipping woes, folks have been jumping on every good Rosé they can get their hands on. But thanks to our support of Maison Saleya last year while most were idle, we’ve been given assurances that there will be enough for a Nicholas Wines Offer.
After the sample bottle crossed my desk last week, I can tell you that this is going to win people over from the first sip. It’s quintessential Provence Rose.
It floods the senses upon opening, hitting with waves of fresh tropical and citrus fruits and herbs de provence. It has vibrant flavors of red raspberry, nectarine and bing cherries with great tension and length and a hint of spice on the finish. Super well-balanced and well structured to boot, this one is really a delight.

#3 Wine Spectator Top 100 Wines of 2021
96 Points, Parker’s Wine Advocate – 95 Points, Wine Spectator
We are one of the very few folks who have Wine Spectator’s #3 Wine of the Year. This is definitely not one to miss. The 2016 vintage showcases this prized vineyard in all its glory; notes of wild black fruit, thyme, mint, eucalyptus, and bay are lifted and enjoyed with the polished tannin and mouthwatering freshness of this wine. Regarded as one of the best vintages in the last few decades, the 2016 Martha’s Vineyard has been aged to perfection for immediate enjoyment at release and will continue to reward for the next 20+ years.
94 Points, Decanter – 93 Points, Jane Anson – 93 Points, James Suckling
The 2019 vintage of Château d’Aussières Corbières is a true reflection of its exceptional terroir and meticulous winemaking. This blend of Syrah, Grenache, Mourvèdre, and Carignan offers a harmonious balance of flavors, with notes of ripe berries, spice, and a hint of earthiness. The wine’s structure is elegant yet powerful, with firm tannins and a long, lingering finish that speaks to its age-worthiness.

“The 50% Moscato Bianco, 50% Brachetto is one of the most distinctive sweet wines in all of Italy. Exotic floral and spice accents soar out of the glass. Rose petal, mint, sage, dried herbs and hard candy play off bright acids and an overall feeling of crystalline energy.” -Antonio Galloni
Fresh off a huge feature in The Wall Street Journal in which they were crowned as the top Prosecco Rose in a lineup of 14, I suspect what was once our little secret will explode. James Suckling also finally got around to tasting it and gave it 91 points. I’d rate it even higher. The 2021 Bisol Jeio Brut Prosecco Rosé is remarkable, and simply put, mouth-wateringly delicious. Inviting aromas of flowers and wild strawberries, with a complex mouthfeel that sings with citrus fruits and creaminess from the tiny crisp bubbles.
