List of products by manufacturer Clos Sainte Magdeleine

The evocation of the Cassis vineyard leads us more to the whites, which have managed to forge a reputation that is not always justified (it really depends on the domains and their wine philosophy).

Clos Sainte Magdeleine, created in the 19th century, benefits from an exceptional terroir at the foot of the Cap Canaille cliffs, producing wines that are both ripe and frisky, revealing one of the most beautiful expressions of Cassis. The mineral style on the finish gives freshness and persistence.

Located on the sea front, on the Cassis coastline, Clos Sainte Magdeleine is without doubt one of the exceptional estates of the Cassis appellation.

For four generations, the Zafiropulo family, Greek industrialists who immigrated to Marseille in the 19th century, have been passionately committed to producing great Cassis white wines.
Since 2010, Jonathan Sack-Zafiropulo has been ensuring the continuity of the family tradition at Clos Sainte Magdeleine. He has undertaken the development of organic viticulture on the estate as well as the enhancement of the terroirs through parcel-based vintages.

            
In the Clos Sainte Magdeleine parcels, the vines are harvested by hand in order to guarantee optimal grape maturity. The grapes are harvested very early in the morning to ensure that the juice is at the right temperature and to avoid any early start to fermentation.
Once the grapes have arrived at the winery, they are pressed and then put into fermentation tanks.
After fermentation, the wine is bottled and placed in the cellar where it will rest in ideal conditions. Indeed, the Clos Sainte Magdeleine has a vast underground cellar which allows a large number of bottles to be stored in conditions (temperature, hydrometry, luminosity, etc.) that are favourable to the ageing of the wine.
