The wine region of Pic-Saint-Loup

Languedoc flagship AOC north of Montpellier, shaded by its emblematic peak: signature Syrah as king red (≥50%) with Grenache and Mourvèdre — deep robe with notes of blackcurrant, blackberry, blueberry, violet, garrigue, liquorice and spices, fine tannins and signature mineral freshness from altitude, long finish. Fresh, moreish rosés as backup. Autonomous AOC since 2017 (~1,200 ha), garrigue limestone terroirs, Mediterranean climate tempered by cool nights.


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.
