Discover the best wines made with Mourvèdre as a single variety or as a blend of Cevennes.
Powerful, deep reds with firm tannins and dense texture, showing aromas of blackberry, leather, garrigue, black pepper, liquorice and animal notes (game, forest floor) with age. Star of Bandol AOC as a single variety and pillar of Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Gigondas and Costières blends. Also in GSM in Languedoc and Australia. A late-ripening variety of Spanish origin (Mataró/Monastrell).
IGP in northern Gard on the foothills of the Cévennes massif: signature Syrah, Grenache, Carignan and Cinsault as fruity elegant reds with notes of cherry, raspberry, blackberry, altitude garrigue, spices and a peppery touch, signature balance preserved by the freshness of the relief. Merlot and Cabernet as complement. Fresh crunchy rosés. Chardonnay, Viognier, Sauvignon and Chasan as lively whites (citrus, flowers, yellow fruits).
