Domaine du Salut

Our estate is based on a gravelly sandy soil, very filtering soil that contains nutrients and a rich biological activity because it is an old bed of a tributary of the Garonne. We have grassed (oats, vetch and trellis) the white plots to enrich the soils with organic matter and to ensure a nitrogen supply for the proper development of flavour precursors. We do not use herbicides at all and prefer to revert to traditional techniques such as putting on vine plants and working our soils. This environmental awareness is guaranteed by our Terra Vitis certification, sustainable viticulture. As for the harvest, it is mechanical except for our sweet wines for which we find the festive atmosphere of the harvest by calling on all our friends and family who are rewarded with a good meal... if they have worked well!

Our story

Our old dream of returning to our family roots and the land was realized in 2015 with the acquisition of our farm. We left Parisian life with our two children to settle down a stone's throw from the place where Aurelia's great uncle had vines: the circle is complete! We are determined to develop our business towards greater respect for our environment, which is above all our living environment, and to make products that are similar to us. We have therefore broken with the Bordeaux codes to create labels with a more contemporary aesthetic.
