Anecdotes about the domain
Our leitmotif is this sentence full of lightness and sincerity: "Here, the work of nature and that of men enter in resonance to create exceptional wines." The implementation of new processes of wine making always accompanied by a marked respect for nature allows us to achieve balanced and quality wines. Our vineyard has been worked for more than 25 years in integrated viticulture and, since 2010, a quarter of it has been converted to organic farming.
The domain's short story
The creation of Domaine de Rombeau goes back six generations. Henri de La Fabrègue, a doctor by trade, started the business in 1850 with the aim of reviving the sweet wines of Rivesaltes. His son, a wine enthusiast, improved the quality of the cuvées and devoted considerable time to their development. In 1988, Pierre Henri de la Fabrègue returned from Paris to look after the family estate. He soon diversified into wine tourism, convinced of its importance for the future of the estate. A pioneer in this field in the region, Domaine de Rombeau today reaps the rewards of several generations of winemakers, thanks also to the efforts of Pierre-Henri's daughter Elise and her nephew Philippe to modernize and preserve traditions.
