Domaine Tropez<br />
Domaine Tropez was born in 1996 and it has assembled a number of AOC Côtes<br />
de Provence vines, covering over 40 hectares. The vineyard has undergone<br />
major reconstruction calling for a large investment to build a state of the art<br />
wine cellar. The dominant vines grown around the estate and in the region are<br />
Grenache, these give structure and aroma to the wines. Tibouren is a specific<br />
vine from the local region of the Golfe of Saint-Tropez, bringing elegance and<br />
finesse. Other complementary vines to these are Cinsault for the rosé, Rolle<br />
and Semillon for the white, Syrah and Cabernet for the red. The personality of<br />
the estate wines is the result of exceptional circumstances; they are under the<br />
strong maritime influence of the clay and limestone soils along with the sandy<br />
mediterranean climate. In line with the principles of organic farming, all vine<br />
growing procedures are wisely thought through: regular mechanical weeding<br />
is performed to limit chemical weed control, using certified organic fertilizers.<br />
Harvesting is done at a low temperature to obtain white and rosé wines<br />
with elegant and complex aromas, also creating crisp, light-coloured wines.<br />
These are the characteristics of Domaine Tropez.
