Co-exhibitor of SYNDICAT DU CRU MINERVOIS
"The Domaine de La Rouviole, in the Minervois, is located in the heart of the "Petit Causse" terroir, in the Cru La Livinière production zone, between Carcassonne, Béziers and Narbonne, a few kilometres from Minerve, an exceptional Cathar site, and around forty kilometres from the Mediterranean. The estate extends over 24 hectares of vines and 10 hectares of scrubland and olive groves, where Syrah, Grenache, Cinsault, Carignan, Terret, Rolle and Grenache Blanc - the great grape varieties of the South of France - flourish. Situated on the slopes, on clay-limestone soil, the vineyards enjoy excellent south-facing exposure and exceptional sunshine (over 300 days a year). Added to this are the scents of the surrounding garrigue: thyme, lavender, rosemary, almond, fig, cherry, holm oak and olive trees, all of which contribute to the aromatic complexity of the wines. The vineyard has been managed organically since 2011 and will begin its conversion to Biodynamic viticulture in 2023.
