Mayra Saillen

Domaine Les Davids

Mayra Saillen is of Swiss and Chilean origin. After a degree in oenological engineering and several years experience in Switzerland and abroad, Mayra settled in Provence with her husband Aristide Furrasola.

Together, they set about creating a family estate of vineyards, olive groves and truffle fields, using a sylvo-agro-pastoralist approach. Responsible for vinification, Mayra likes to express the freshness and minerality of high-altitude wines. She is also keen to revive viticulture on the high plateaux of Provence, which has a bright future in the face of global warming. The estate is farmed organically, to safeguard biodiversity.
