Estate

The Domaine Anne Gros & J-Paul Tollot brings together two passionate winemakers specialized in terroir wines, combining their expertise to best express the Minervois identity.

Vineyard

Vinification & Aging

Vinification is carefully managed with temperature control to preserve the aromas and freshness of the Carignan, followed by aging in tanks to maintain fruit purity and wine suppleness.
