Domaine de la fouquette
Côte de Provence terroir wines
Located at the edge of the Maures mountains, the Domaine de la Fouquette is a unique terroir, rich with biodiversity and classified as a “Notre Dame des Anges” (our Lady of the Angels).
The pedoclimatic conditions (clay & shale soil, good sun exposure and significant temperature variations from summer to winter) allow for the wine to express its potential fully.
Here, the vineyards have been certified Organic since 2013 by Ecocert. Moreover, they are cared for following environment-friendly methods in a spirit of continuous improvement (green manure sowing, vitipastoralism…), which allows us to produce genuine vintages awarded every year in the most prestigious competitions.
Terroir of exception
An exceptional terroir for organic wines with a unique character!
The Domaine de la Fouquette organic vineyard covers 40 acres and is located on the foothills of the Maures massif (north side).
The schistose clay soil offers an acid pH. In addition, the sun exposure is outstanding from morning to evening.
Therefore, the wines are balanced and defined by powerful aromatic notes and a remarkable presence on the palate.
Organic production
We manage the vineyard with organic farming standards and do not envision any other method.
We do not use any chemical molecule since our main concern is to limit our impact on the environment at all times.
The farm has been certified by Ecocert since 2013 and is part of the referral farms of the DEPHY network, whose objective is to reduce the inputs to a strict minimum.
As a result, we constantly strive to experiment with new methods (sowing green manure to restore soil life, sheep in the vineyards…) for several years.
The grape variety are typical from Provence. Rolle, Grenache, Cinsault, Syrah, Mourvèdre, Carignan.
