Buy Wine from Domaines Ott

In the heart of Provence, where the scent of lavender mingles with the sea breeze and the sun bathes the vineyards in golden light, lies Domaines Ott. It is a place that seems to be straight out of a dream, where nature and a passion for wine have woven a story that goes back more than a century.

The story begins in 1896 with Marcel Ott, a young agricultural engineer from Alsace who, after travelling through France in search of the perfect terroir, was enchanted by Provence. Here, in these lands of stony soils and Mediterranean climate, he saw a potential that few were able to appreciate at the time. In 1912, he founded Château de Selle, his first estate, with the dream of making wines that would capture the soul of the region.
Over the years, the Ott family expanded his legacy with the acquisition of Clos Mireille in 1936, an estate facing the sea where the vines grow almost touching the foam of the waves. Years later, in 1956, they added Château Romassan, in the Bandol appellation, known for its powerful and elegant Mourvèdre reds.
Today, under the direction of Jean-François Ott, the fourth generation of the family continues to cultivate the tradition with the same respect for the land and the same passion for wine as its founder. Because when you taste a Domaines Ott rosé, you are drinking not only wine, but also history, dedication and a piece of Provence in every glass.

Vineyards

Domaines Ott is not just any winery; it is a tribute to the diversity of Provence. Its vineyards, spread across three estates with distinct personalities, reflect the best of this magical land: Château de Selle, located in Taradeau, this 93-hectare vineyard sits on hills with chalky, clay soils, perfectly drained to produce elegant, complex wines. Here, varieties such as Grenache, Cinsault and Syrah express themselves with finesse and freshness; Clos Mireille. If ever you've seen a vineyard that seems to touch the sea, this is it. With 56 hectares in La Londe Les Maures, the sea breeze and the shale and quartz soils give the wines a salinity and mineral character that make them unmistakable. Ideal for vibrant whites and rosés with a Mediterranean soul; and Château Romassan. In the heart of Bandol, the 83 hectares of this vineyard are spread out in terraces on limestone and loamy soils. This is the realm of Mourvèdre, Bandol's king of grapes, which produces deep, structured reds with exceptional ageing potential.
But beyond the numbers, what makes Domaines Ott special is its commitment to the land. Viticulture here is a patient art: no harsh chemicals are used, the natural cycle of the soil is respected and biodiversity is encouraged. Each vine is worked by hand, with the attention that a work of art deserves.

Philosophy

At Domaines Ott, winemaking is not just a technical process, it is a matter of the soul. From the vineyard to the cellar, every detail is taken care of with the aim of extracting the best from each grape, without artifice or shortcuts.
Vinification here follows a clear principle: to preserve the purity of the fruit. The grapes are harvested by hand at optimum ripeness, gently pressed and fermented under controlled conditions to preserve their freshness and expressiveness. There are no unnecessary interventions; the wine is left to speak for itself.
The result is wines with an unmistakable identity. The rosés, for example, are not simply summer wines; they are the soul of Provence in bottle. Elegant, structured, with a minerality that gives them depth and a balance that makes them unforgettable.
In short, Domaines Ott does not seek to follow trends or produce commercial wines. Their philosophy is clear: to create wines that reflect the authenticity of their terroir, with the respect and passion that only a family with more than a century of history can bring. And when you uncork one of their bottles, you understand that. Because in every sip there is a piece of Provence, a nod to tradition and an invitation to enjoy life calmly, glass in hand and in good company.
