The origin of
the name of the property comes from the flower of mauve which plants are
present in great number in the vineyard during the spring and which give
off discrete floral flavours and cheer up the landscape with their soft
colours.

The Domaine
de l'Amauve is property of two old Provençales families
and it has been so for several generations. These families were united
by Aline and Louis's wedding in 1952. This wedding was the basis of the
property.

One of the children,
Christian, a oenologist and winemaker in Châteauneuf-du-Pape, has
decided, to run the property after the late retirement of his parents (Aline
was 74 and Louis 81 in 2005).
However, passion helped, in addition to the culture of the vine, he has decided to make his own wine and market it himself in order to share more closely the marvellous soil of Séguret. |
