Located in the Montagne d'Alaric, highest point of the Languedoc which terroirs represented 4 geological eras, the family is fond of healing people the most naturally way possible; they are organic since 2007 and biodynamic since 2012!
The story
Mr Roche planted this plot of Carignan in 1892. Sheltered between two cypress hedges, the vines have bravely survived the years and offer us one of the most beautiful expressions of this emblematic grape variety of the Corbières. Depth, elegance, finesse and tension for a great wine, which loves time and patience. Emotion and thrills guaranteed!
