Features
Le Domaine d’Ouréa, créé en 2009 par Adrien Roustan, se situe au coeur du département du Vaucluse, sur les communes de Vacqueyras et Gigondas, dans la partie méridionale des Côtes du Rhône. Après des études viticoles et des expériences professionnelles en Bourgogne et en Californie, Adrien Roustan, reprend une partie du domaine de son grand père, Raymond Bertrand. Dès la première année, il convertit le vignoble en agriculture biologique et obtient la certification en 2012. Ce changement de rapport avec la nature était pour lui une évidence afin de proposer des vins qui reflètent les différents terroirs de son vignoble.
Les vendanges sont manuelles sur tout le vignoble afin de respecter le raisin jusque dans la cuve. Il est un adepte et un inconditionnel de la vendange manuelle qui permet de donner des vins lumineux, frais et rayonnants.
L’Agriculture est un travail de patience, il a fallu plus de 10 ans pour remettre la nature en marche et atteindre un équilibre biologique dans le vignoble et les vins. Le passage en Bio-Dynamie est pour Adrien Roustan la continuité de sa philosophie et il a décidé en 2020 de convertir son domaine en Bio-Dynamie.

What is an author wine?
This can be so diverse depending on the personality of their sire, that it is easier to define what it is not. An author wine is anything but a standard, stereotypical wine, made to please as many people as possible. It is therefore rarely produced in millions of copies, copying itself from vintage in vintage.
An author wine is therefore a wine that does not look like that of the neighbor. Which from year to year will evolve according to the vagaries of the weather and the mood of the author - the two that can be linked. Because the author does not rely on market studies to carry out his boat. He makes his wine as he feels, as he likes, as he can, sometimes ... and too bad if he does not please everyone.
This is why author wines are sometimes classified as "table wine" or "France wine". Because the winemaker did not plan the authorized grape variety*, makes the assembly or vinification recommended in the name **. He is often a bit rebellious, our author. But that is why we like it! ... That said, author's wines are not systematically marginal: they are present in most of the appellations, and can be part of the elite of these this***. Because they are not content to have personality: they are good, in addition! With in general aDegree of TorchabilityVery high: we never tire of it at the end of the first sip.
As author's wines are not chaptalized, levied, hacked ... They can have very different profiles depending on the vintage. It is up to us (resellers and consumers) to accept them as they are, and to remain faithful to the producers, because they need us to continue their activity.
