The Success Story of Domaine Singra (Carignan)

Up until the sixth generation, the family grew Carignan, Mourvedre, Syrah and other varieties that grow well in the south of France, but under Jean Singra, the seventh generation, the New World wine boom pushed the family into a corner along with other southern French wine producers. They tried making wine with varieties that were popular in the New World, but they couldn't compete on price and it became difficult to survive. At that time, the eldest son, Laurent, who would become the eighth generation, was studying law at university, but was unsure whether to take over the Singra family's winemaking business. However, as he looked at our vast vineyard and saw his father in a difficult situation, he came to a decision.

He found a dead Carignan tree in the vineyard.

And Laurent told his father, "Dad, there's no point in trying to imitate New World wines. Let's focus on grapes that are naturally suited to the land of Permignan." And so Laurent decided to take over the business. First, he planted high-quality Carignan vines and switched to organic methods, focusing on other grapes such as Syrah, Mourvedre, and Gnache. By adopting pesticide-free methods, he not only ensured the safety of the grapes, but also restored the ecosystem of the land. In the early 2000s, Carignan wine received a star rating from the French wine magazine Guide HACHETTE, and other wines received scores of 90 points or more from Robert Parker and James Sacklin. As of 2025, the company has achieved such success that it is exporting to 25 countries around the world.
