When most people think Provence, they think rosé. And when they think rosé, they think summer. But Figuière, a standout winery in the heart of Provence, shatters that seasonal stereotype. This is not just a summer fling—these are wines for every table, in every season.
Summer has firmly settled in Provence: this week, temperatures have climbed to 36°C, and the first signs of surface drought are appearing, with cracked soils starting to show. Yet, deeper down, water reserves remain excellent. Thanks to an exceptionally rainy spring, the soils have been thoroughly replenished, ensuring a strong start to the vines' vegetative growth. 2025 is already shaping up to be a highly unusual vintage in terms of rainfall. As a reminder, the average annual rainfall in the region over the past 30 years is about 650 mm. Since the last harvest, we’ve already recorded over 500 mm, and we’re only halfway through the year. This trend toward wetter springs, observed since 2018, is gradually reshaping the water profile of the Mediterranean vineyard landscape.
