Producer Information
Domaines Ott* was founded in 1912 by Marcel Ott, an agricultural engineer from Alsace who dreamed of establishing a great wine estate near the Mediterranean. Today, the wineries are owned and managed by Champagne Louis Roederer and produce some of the worlds most prestigious wines, but particularly ros wines, made at distinctively different estates in Bandol and Ctes de Provence appellations. Regarded as the gold standard of ros by The Wall Street Journal, in 2016 Domaines Ott* has released a new cuve, By. Ott.
