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