Between the sea and the sun

The sea that laps the shores of the island
is also the means by which the wines produced
at the Domaine de la Courtade leave to spread their most delicious message in the name of Provence.

The earth, the sun and the sea in symbiosis...
a mysterious alchemy of different elements which create an exceptional produce at the Domaine de la Courtade!
A real satisfaction for Richard Auther, the vineyard's founder.


Plots of land
with legendary names
offer a type of soil with very particular characteristics :
flaky schist which stores water
and lets the roots work their way through to reach it.

An exceptionally clement and beneficial climate for vines :
3000 hours of sunshine a year (the highest in France)
and constantly high humidity thanks to the sea which plays the role of temperature regulator.
