Domaine Les Yeuses

About

Family winery, vineyard of 80 hectares, Domaine les Yeuses has been owned by the Dardé family for the last 40 years. Located in Mèze, between the Mediterranean garrigue and the Etang de Thau, the vineyard is either on clay and lime soil or on sandy soil. The Mediterranean climate sustains the grapes throughout the year. The sea proximity adds some freshness at the end of maturation just before the harvest. So the fruit characteristic, typical of the wines from shore is well maintained. We make use of the different kinds of terroir in order to offer Pays d’Oc IGP wines focusing on elegance and pleasure. White grape varieties are grown on sandy soil where they best express their characteristics (Chardonnay, Sauvignon, Vermentino, Viognier and Muscat). Red grapes are set on clay soil which is more adapted to get a good concentration of fruit, structure and power in mouth (Carignan, Cinsault, Merlot, Grenache, Syrah, Cabernet, Marselan).
