Presentation

This jewel guarded by the Forest du Dom, one of the most beautiful of the Massif des Maures, is located between Bormes-les-Mimosas and the Gulf of Saint-Tropez. Since 2007, Dominique and Christopher have waken up their vines and revealed their full potential through a demanding vinification. Under their leadership the forty-acre domain has taken a giant step forward, and is particularly renowned amongst rosé lovers.

Extra

Christopher and Dominique Duburcq have largely developed wine tourism on their domain. The cellar houses a photo exhibition. Mountain bikes are available for customers to go for a ride in the vineyards. The domain offers several reception spaces, from La Bergerie (40 people seated) to night tent (200 people). Finally, it offers weekly rental of 4 beautiful, quiet and peaceful villas with modern interior design and breathtaking views of nature.

Original and unusual

Domaine Sainte-Marie is named after the statue of the Virgin Mary that has been watching over it since 1884, when a particularly virulent cholera epidemic swept through the surrounding valleys. It never reached the Dom forest, sparing the inhabitants of what was then a hamlet. A statue of the Virgin Marie was built in recognition for this miracle.
