From the sun-drenched hills of Provence, Château Paradis Essentiel captures the warmth and elegance of the region in a beautifully polished blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Grenache, and Syrah.
Ripe red and dark berry fruit lead the way, layered with hints of pepper, gentle spice, and soft Mediterranean herbs. The palate is supple and rounded, with velvety texture, fine tannins, and a fresh lift that keeps everything balanced and vibrant.
Concentrated yet refined, this is a versatile southern French red that delivers both charm and structure — perfect for hearty dishes or simply enjoying by the fire.

About the Winery
Château Paradis produces elegant, expressive wines that reflect the diversity and identity of Provence. Nestled between the Sainte Victoire Mountain and the Luberon, the estate covers 80 hectares in the heart of the Coteaux d’Aix-en-Provence, in Puy-Sainte-Réparade. Since 2011, Xavier and Odile Thieblin have guided the estate with a clear focus on quality and authenticity, working with renowned Rhône oenologists Michel Tardieu and Philippe Cambie. Their winemaking approach blends precision with deep respect for terroir, harvesting and vinifying parcels separately to preserve freshness and varietal character.

“ this Provençal blend of cabernet, grenache, and syrah carries a moderate alcohol level and a graceful restraint. Plump and free of heavy oak, it teases with natural fruit spice, a style guided by Michel Tardieu and the late Philippe Cambie. Polished yet unpretentious, it shows very good concentration, supple structure, and velvety tannins that glide into a long, lingering finish—ready to charm now.”
