Domaine le Clos des Lumieres

ABOUT THE PRODUCER

Domaine le Clos des Lumieres is a family operation founded in 1946 by the grandfather of the current winemaker: Gerald Serrano. Located in the Southern Rhône Valley in the commune of Fournès, it is the high quality of the Domaine’s soils that give their wines their unique appeal. The Domaine owns 50 hectares planted with vines, some as old as 65 years. The rocky, calcareous soil retains the heat of the sun through the night, providing the vines with a stable temperature and allowing the vines to produce fully ripe grapes.
