Definitely needs guts to get involved with natural winemaking in a region that is full of posh, trendy, luxurious lifestyle and mass market Provence rose wines. Karina and Guillaume  Lefevre purchased Domaine de Sulauze (Miramas village) in 2004. Since the beginning, they enforced organic agriculture, and then biodynamic in the vineyard, wheat fields, barley, olive trees, and vegetable garden. Currently, the domaine has 30 hectares of vines planted, under a flaky limestone soil known as “lauze”, with classic Provence varieties like Vermentino, Grenache Blanc, Clairette, Grenache Noir, Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cinsault and Mourvèdre. Over the years Guillaume has brought back many vine cuttings taken from massale selection and grafted them onto his rootstock and now makes single parcel bottlings from these vines, including Vermentino and Sciacarello from Antoine Abatucci’s vines and Serine (a historic, locally adapted clone of Syrah) from Hermitage. In the domaine also exist 2 hectares of barley for the brewery, 2 hectares of wheat for the bread, and 5 hectares of olive trees. 

They grow everything according to biodynamic and agroecology principles. They don't use weed killer, neither insecticide, neither chemical treatments. Everything is harvested by hand, fermentations are with native yeasts and whether sulfur is added at bottling depends on the vintage and cuvée. The domaine’s single parcels are ploughed by horse. They follow the lunar calendar for every operation: in the vines as well as in the winery.
