DOMAIN VAQUER

Frédérique is an oenologist and… from Burgundy! The 15 hectares of the estate are located 200 meters above sea level, on balconies from which you can see the sea. The wines of Domaine Vaquer are produced exclusively on an AOC terroir of clay-siliceous slopes. The reds, whites and rosés come from the know-how of a family of passionate winegrowers. Fernand Vaquer, his father-in-law was one of the first winegrowers to bottle his wine at the end of the 1960s. A crazy idea at the time, because only sweet wines had this privilege, but which many followed later . “I want to vinify wines that resemble their terroir and that resemble me,” she comments. And she proves it when she describes the vinification of reds on finesse and elegance, the silky tannins, the more or less spicy aromas of Grenache.

Tasting in the cellar and visit of the vineyard in the form of a gourmet walk, by appointment.
