Anecdotes about the domain
We consider our job as a winemaker not as a technical work, but rather as an accompaniment that we do to the vine. According to us, the vine alone is enough to generate a multitude of aromas and sensations that a machine alone can never achieve.
The domain's short story
Domaine Milan is located near the mountain "Les Alpilles" and takes advantage of its climate which favors the originality of the terroir. The soil is made up of blue marl on limestone scree and gravel mixed with quaternary marine sand for the Clos Milan. Add this to Henri's sensitivity and you will find complex, fine wines of great harmony. All without filtration, without added sulfur and certified organic. We obtained our organic certification in 2002, but we had not used chemical fertilizers since 1987. The parcels of the estate have been planted by blending grape varieties, which creates a diversity that favors the expression of the terroir. Since 2014, Théophile, Henri's son, has joined the estate and brings a new breath to the Domaine.
The winemaker's pride
Henri Milan founded his estate in Saint-Rémy-en-Provence with the desire to produce "wines that don't hurt the head" and that are environmentally friendly. He is a precursor of biodynamic viticulture and sulfite-free vinification since 1987, there is not a single chemical product on the estate. Théophile has been working alongside his father since 2014 and is preparing to take over the vineyard.
