One hectare of Sciacarellu imported from old Corsican vines and planted massale selection at the Domaine a few years ago. 100% destemmed; 16 days of maceration then lightly pressed. Indigenous yeast fermentation in tank. Aged in used foudres for 10 months. Bottled unfined, unfiltered and with just a touch of sulfur at bottling for the voyage across the ocean.
Karina and Guillaume Lefèvre met hiking across Corsica and together they have built a family and domaine in the tiny village of Miramas in the Côteaux d’Aix-en-Provence appellation.
The family biodynamically farms 29 hectares of traditional Provençal red and white varieties grown in a flaky limestone soil known as “Lauze” from which the winery takes its name, Domaine de Sulauze.
A commitment to purity and terroir transparency guides Guillaume in the cellar where wild yeast fermentations, no/low sulfur doses, and no fining or filtration are foundational to the winemaking process.
While Pomponette Rosé is the bulk of their production, there will never be enough to satisfy demand. Fortunately, Domaine de Sulauze’s assorted reds and whites make for a lineup of energetic, crunchy and soulful wines that we are honored to represent.
