His farm is named Domaine Marie Bérénice, after his daughter, located on the outskirts of Le Castellet and on the other side of the walled Medieval town from our friends at the Domaine Tempier.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'San Francisco', 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDamien Roux comes from a long line of grape growers in Bandol, but historically his family sold their fruit to other wineries.  Damien also made wine for another winery in the area, which got sold to Domaine Ott, so Damien used this opportunity to begin making his own wines from his family’s old vines. A humble farm of 14 hectares on clay and limestone terraces, the farming here is certified organic, and the work is done by hand.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the cellar, Damien vinifies with native, wild yeasts, uses a long maceration, and then ages his red Bandol in large foudres for eighteen months before bottling without any fining or filtration.
