Domaine de Marchandise was founded several centuries ago, with its origins dating back to the Middle Ages. The first vineyards were planted by monks or local lords, as was often the case in this part of France. Over the centuries, the estate gradually expanded. The development of viticulture in Provence and improvements in farming techniques led to an expansion of the vineyards and an improvement in the quality of the wine produced.

The estate underwent significant modernisation during the 20th century. The owners invested in modern equipment, improved winemaking techniques and adopted more sustainable, environmentally-friendly viticultural practices. Thanks to these efforts, the Marchandise estate has gained recognition both locally and nationally. The wines produced here began to receive awards and praise from critics and wine lovers alike.

Today, Domaine de Marchandise produces a range of wines, mainly rosés, but also reds. The terroir of the region, characterised by its limestone soil and Mediterranean climate, plays a crucial role in the quality of the wines produced. The estate is committed to sustainable viticultural practices, including organic and biodynamic farming. This approach aims to preserve the environment while producing high-quality wines.

Domaine de Marchandise continues to embody the spirit and tradition of the Côtes de Provence, while innovating and adapting to the modern demands of viticulture and wine production.

Pale straw yellow and very clear, the Vermentino DOCG di Capichera shows a certain personality and character, without yielding to excesses of aroma and structure. It is a characteristic true Vermentino that expresses a rich and complex bouquet of hawthorn, iris, juniper, jasmine and orange flower. Its mineral character provides a continuous contrast to the floral and fruity range, rounded off by scents of pear and peach.

The wine is fresh, full-bodied, complex and enveloping, vertical and lively in its beautiful sapidity. It has a good body and a delicious, fruity finish. Perfect at any time, starting with the aperitif for the most demanding palates. It goes splendidly with any fish preparation and stands out with shellfish but also with rich dishes such as the classic malloreddus.
