Domaine de Suriane is a family-owned winery located in the heart of the Costières de Nîmes region in the south of France. This historic estate has been producing exceptional wines since 1728, making it one of the oldest wineries in the area.
The Costières de Nîmes is a small but prestigious wine region that shares its borders with the renowned Rhône Valley and the Mediterranean Sea.

Domaine de Suriane is known for its dedication to sustainable farming practices, with a strong focus on preserving the natural environment and biodiversity of the region. The estate has been certified organic since 2012, and all of their wines are made from 100% organically grown grapes.
The winery produces a variety of wines, including red, white, and rosé, all of which are made from grapes grown on their 26 hectares of vineyards. The estate is particularly known for its red wines, which are made from a blend of Syrah, Grenache, and Mourvèdre grapes. These grapes are hand-harvested and carefully selected to ensure only the best fruit is used in the winemaking process.
One of the most unique aspects of Domaine de Suriane is their use of ancient winemaking techniques. The estate has a Roman-style wine press, which is still in use today, and adds to the historical charm of the winery. These traditional methods, combined with modern winemaking techniques, result in wines with a unique character and exceptional quality.

Domaine de Suriane
Domaine de Suriane is a wine producer based in Provence, France, working within the Méditerranée IGP appellation. This broad geographic indication covers wines from across the Mediterranean coast of southern France, offering producers flexibility in blending and grape sourcing compared to the stricter rules governing appellations such as Côtes de Provence or Bandol.
The Méditerranée IGP designation allows for a wide range of varieties, though the warm, dry climate and garrigue-covered landscape of southern Provence lend themselves particularly well to robust Mediterranean grapes. Mourvèdre, one of the region's most characterful varieties, performs strongly in this maritime-influenced heat, producing wines with structure, spice, and dark fruit character. When used for rosé, Mourvèdre can yield wines with more depth and texture than lighter-skinned varieties typically deliver.
Domaine de Suriane's current range includes a Mourvèdre-based rosé produced under kosher certification, meaning it has been made in accordance with Jewish dietary law, typically involving supervision by Sabbath-observant Jews throughout the winemaking process. Kosher wine from Provence represents a small but genuinely crafted segment of the region's output, and the use of Mourvèdre for a rosé reflects a commitment to the distinctive character of southern French viticulture rather than a purely commercial approach.
