The Clos Mireille winery is located in La Londe-les-Maures, a 174-hectare nature reserve, 56 of which are planted with vines. The vineyards slope down towards the sea and benefit from constant breezes and Mediterranean sunshine. The soil, composed of schist and quartz, is poor and well-draining, resulting in low yields and high grape concentration. The proximity to the sea gives the wine its characteristic salty undertone.
After being harvested by hand, the grapes undergo a rigorous selection process. Fermentation proceeds slowly at a controlled temperature. The wine then matures for at least eight months in large oak barrels. This approach imparts structure and depth without losing the freshness and purity of the fruit.
