The wine region of Saint-Christol
AOC Languedoc east of Montpellier (230 ha, 50–100 m, varied terrain of rounded galets, alluvium and clay sometimes on the same plot, a warm Mediterranean climate with cool nights under maritime influence). Grenache, Mourvèdre and Syrah are the sole red kings in blends: generous with black pepper, ripe candied fruits and a tannic structure suited to long ageing. Carignan, Cinsault, Counoise, Morrastel and Piquepoul Noir as complementary varieties.
The wine region of Languedoc-Roussillon
Largest single French vineyard, dominated by sunny, generous reds. Spicy Syrah, candied Grenache (ripe fruit, garrigue), structured Carignan, deep Mourvèdre, supple Cinsault. Stars: structured Corbières, Minervois, Faugères, Saint-Chinian; round Côtes-du-Roussillon. Legendary vins doux naturels: Banyuls and Maury (fortified Grenache) with notes of cocoa, fig, prune.
The word of the wine: Aging on lees
Maturing on the lees enhances the stability, aromatic complexity and texture of white wines, which gain in body and volume. This phenomenon is induced by autolysis, the process of self-degradation of the lees.
