Domaine Tempier

The three single-vineyards of Domaine Tempier are: La Migoua, La Tourtine, and Cabassaou.

La Migoua is made up of heterogeneous clay that varies in color between red, ochre, and blue. La Migoua has the smallest amount of Mourvèdre in the blend, with the highest percentage of Grenache of the three cuvées. 

La Tourtine sits just above Cabassaou. The soil here is more homogeneous, with rich clay. La Tourtine produces powerful, tannic wines with gorgeous fruit character.

Since Cabassaou sits lower on this hillside, it is protected from the strength of the Mistral, enjoying temperate breezes and maximum sunshine. There is ripeness, density and power in these wines.
