The Camargue is well-known for its magnificent landscapes as well as its typical fauna and flora. One less well-known fact is that it is home to a remarkable vineyard that is completely unlike any other: the Vignoble des Sables. A unique property covering a contiguous area with some 429 hectares of vineyard, over 3 coastal strips, of which Laetitia Carbonell, the cellar master, is responsible for the blending of the different cuvées.

The main varietal grown at Domaine Royal de Jarras is Grenache gris. The juice obtained after pressing this grape varietal has a unique pink grey colour, which gives it its "gris de gris" name. A beautiful pale and salmon colour draped in a bright, shiny structure with light golden glints. An intense, delicate nose, full of finesse with berry, peach and apricot notes followed by an exotic fruit cocktail.
