history
The Breban company is one of the last family owned company producing artisanal sparkling wines in the South of France.

Since that time, two generation have been managing the company with the same passion and philosophy for quality.Today, they are famous in France and all over the world for the quality of the wines of Provence and for their premium hand crafted sparkling wines.
Vineyard
DOMAINE CASA ROSSA rosé wine has an original style, produced through the marriage of an international varietal with a typical Corsican grape (i.e., Grenache - 30%; Niellucciu - 70%). Grown on the Island of Beauty, a typical Mediterranean island, DOMAINE CASA ROSSA rosé belongs to a family of wines classified as « IGP Corsican wines ». Domain Casa Rossa depends on the cooperative Aghione which is located south of Corsica. The vineyard is situated on clay-limestone soil, shaded in places, with disparate silty clay areas, red sands, and pebbles. Local climatic conditions feature plenty of sunshine year round, moderated by its proximity to the sea and the island’s principal mountain ranges.
Winemaking
At the Casa Rossa vineyard, each grape varietal is vinified separately, treated through a technique of cold liquid stabilization, and then subjected to temperature-controlled fermentation and standard aging processes.. /n
