The domain

ANNE GROS AND JEAN PAUL TOLLOT

Anne Gros, Burgundy winemaker, assisted by her husband Jean Paul Tollot, work 18 hectares at the border of Minervois and Saint Chinian.

GROS TOLLOT A SHOCK ASSOCIATION

When a renowned Burgundy winemaker, Anne Gros, helped by her husband Jean-Paul Tollot make the big difference with the terroirs languedocians and titilate Syrah, grenache and other carignan, this gives the Domaine Anne Gros and Jean-Paul Tollot. A domain that advances the reputation of the Appellation. Attentive to the cultivation of the vine and the sensitivity of each variety, these two exceptional winegrowers brilliantly succeed in singular cuvées.

THEIR TERROIRS

The Domaine is located in the Minervois and more precisely in the Causse. This wine-growing zone of the Minervois is mainly marked by its altitude which exceeds 200 m to reach almost 500 m. The result is lower night temperatures in Minervois and slower thermal warming in spring. There is more rainfall and more regular rainfall than all of Minervois.

Anne Gros and Jean Paul Tollot exploit 3 terroirs: Coast of brian, Minervois and Minervois Cazelles.

IDENTITY WINES

Since the first vintage in 2008, the range of wines is consistent, very careful, and Southern wines in aromas but not in mouth profiles. The wines very successful from the second vintage.

Passionate about the beautiful grape varieties of Carignan, Syrah, Grenache, Cinsault and Marselan that flourish on clay-limestone soils,
of marnes and sandstone, the purity of the grape varieties as well as the strong identity of the terroir Anne Gros and Jean Paul Tollot offer us a dozen wines of character: La cuvée 50/50, La Ciaude, la Cinso, L’O de la vie, Les Combettes, Les Fontanilles and Les Carretals...
