The « Tropez » Estate was created in 1996.
It carries the name of my grandfather, a man passionate with vineyards and wines, who all along his life time bought Vines. The estate’s surface is now 36 Hectares, and is composed with differents parcels of AOC « côtes de Provence » scattered around St-Tropez.
The whole vineyard is composed with different variety of vines, the most important one being « grenache » which brings to our region, structure and flavour. The « Tibouren » which is a specific Saint-Tropez’s vine, brings on his side, elegance and fineness. The others vines are
« Cinsaut » for Rosé wine, « Rolle » and
« Sémillon » for white wine and « Syrah » and
« Cabernet » for red wine.
The average age of the vineyard is about 20 years old and every year we renew over one and a half Hectare to restructure the vineyard. The parcels stand on chalky, clayey and even sandy grounds and due to the seabord localisation of our town, we benefit from the Meditérraneen climat.
We really « think » the cultivation of our vines, first of all, by developping the quality of our soils...
