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.

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.
