Meet the winemaker
La Navicelle is a true gem of a winery located between the mountains and the sea, stretching across 7 kilometers of the Mediterranean coastline. The Provencal landscape provides an ideal setting for grape varieties to flourish, benefitting from the unparalleled quality of the Mediterranean environment. The principles of biodynamic farming are followed with the utmost respect for the ecosystem, fauna, and flora. The red clay soils, along with the rocky subsoil comprising limestone, sandstone, and shale, form a nourishing foundation for the grape varietals that make up our rosé.
The winemaker, Romain Magnanou, hails from the Bordeaux region and has an impressive resume that includes working at a Grand Cru Classé de Graves in Pessac (Château La Tour Martillac) after graduation. In 2006, he moved to Provence and worked at two different wineries before taking over Domaine La Navicelle in 2019. Today, he leads both the vineyard and the cellar with the ambition of magnifying its exceptional terroir.
