Clos Mireille - Domaines Ott

Clos Mireille is Domaines Ott’s second property and is located near the sea in the Cotes de Provence. An 18th century house is surrounded by palm trees and over 40 hectares devoted to wine production, growing five different types of grape varieties.

There are two wines produced at Clos Mireille. There is the Blanc de Blancs Clos Mireille (white) and Rosé Coeur de Grain Clos Mireille (rose).

Blanc de Blancs Clos Mireille

This is a white wine made from two grape varieties. Semillon and rolle grapes are picked, selected carefully before being delicately pressed and fermented slowly before being aged in oak casts. The wine is then bottled and stored in cellars for up to a year. The result is an elegant white wine with a fruity aroma and dry taste, great for accompanying grilled fish and shellfish dishes.

Rosé Coeur de Grain Clos Mireille

Coeur de Grain is a striking pale pink rose wine from the Cotes de Provence . The wine is made using the same care that goes into all Ott wines, producing a lovely fresh rose wine with a fine balance of citrus flavours and a hint of stone fruits.
