Domaine Ollier Taillefer
The Domaine Ollier-Taillefer is a family-run business in Fos, a picturesque village on the high slopes of the Faugeres Appellation in central Languedoc. Brother and sister Luc and Francoise are the fifth generation of a line of vignerons born and bred within the area of Faugeres.
The vineyards face due south, lying at heights of between 200 and 350 metres.They are set on steeply-sloping schist hillsides where the grapes are harvested by hand. Grape varieties planted are Grenache, Syrah,Mourvedre, Carignan and Cinsault for the reds and rose wines and Vermentino and Rousanne for the whites.
Because of their deep respect for their land they apply the principles of "la viticulture raisonee". Since the 2001 vintage, their 30 hectares of vineyards have been officially certified "Terra Vitis". Rigorous checks are carried out each year by an independent organization to confirm their growing practices meet the Terra Vitis requirements.
