This perfect balance between an area dedicated to vines and unspoilt nature is the essential prerequisite for sustainable winemaking and biodiversity. Most of this vineyard is located around the “capital” of the Vin des Sables: Aigues-Mortes.
Jarras is the bigger of the twelve domains that are impressive by their dimensions and their delightful landscapes. A unique property covering a contiguous area with some 429 hectares of vineyard, over 3 coastal strips, of which Auriane Eysseric, the cellar master, is responsible for the blending of the different cuvées.

In order to avoid wind erosion, a rye cover protects the soil from October to May. More than 5,000 sheep pasture here throughout the winter. Fertilization is mainly organic.

Generation after generation, Domaine de Jarras’ mission has been to protect and enhance the area’s natural environment while also respecting it
Read moreAu Domaine Royal de Jarras, la volonté des Hommes, de génération en génération, a toujours été de sauvegarder et de valoriser ces espaces naturels en les respectant. Tout a été mis en place pour que la vigne qui produit ces vins hors du commun, fasse partie du paysage naturel et soit donc préservée comme tout ce qui l’entoure.
Ces dernières années, les progrès et les techniques évoluant, est apparue dans ces vignobles la viticulture de précision qui nous a amené de façon tout à fait logique et naturelle vers une viticulture dite biologique. C’est ainsi que les produits utilisés sont tous d’origine naturelle. L’objectif est de toujours privilégier la vie des sols, la pérennité des espèces animales et végétales favorisant ainsi l’écosystème. La totalité du vignoble de Camargue est classé suivant le règlement Européen en viticulture biologique, nous permettant d’élaborer des vins issus de cette viticulture.
