Wine description
The Terrasses du Larzac are a gentle marriage between the land and the vine, revealing the secrets of an ancestral terroir, as evidenced by the Via Luteva, a Roman road dating from the 1st century BC, a vestige of a glorious past that fostered commercial and cultural exchange. This terroir and this historical period form a magnificent duo between nature, viticultural expertise and heritage, offering a journey through time and taste.
Winemaking and ageing
The harvest is triggered on the basis of ripeness checks, analysis of polyphenols contained in the grape skins, and daily tasting of the berries as harvest approaches. Harvesting healthy and ripe grapes is the fundamental step in achieving a high level of quality. The harvest is done by hand, and the grapes are brought to the winery in containers within the hour. The grapes are sorted and then destemmed before being placed in temperature-controlled vats. Each grape variety is vinified separately. The maceration period lasts 20 to 25 days. A portion of the wine is aged in barrels.
Tasting note
Ruby robe with intense reflections. A fresh and very aromatic nose blending notes of garrigue and spices. On the palate, this intensely fruity cuvée presents fine and elegant tannins and reveals indulgent notes of red fruits.

Your questions about our wines
Each product page provides a food and wine pairing suggestion suited to the cuvée. Our online tasting assistant can also advise you based on your menu.
The ageing potential depends on the cuvée and vintage — it is specified in this wine's technical sheet. In general, our wines for ageing and fine wines can be kept for more than 10 years, or even over 100 years for our fortified sweet wines, whilst our lighter cuvées, intended to be enjoyed young, are best appreciated within 2 to 3 years of purchase.
The alcohol content (% vol.) varies by cuvée and vintage; it is listed in the product’s technical data sheet, below the description.
The majority of our red, white and rosé wines are dry. Our natural sweet wines (Rivesaltes, Maury...) and certain crémants are sweet or semi-dry. The style (dry/sweet) of this cuvée is specified in its description.
The grape varieties, appellation and terroir of origin are indicated in this product’s technical data sheet.
Like almost all wines, our cuvées contain sulphites (naturally present during fermentation, sometimes added in small quantities as a preservative). Details (“no added sulphites”, level, etc.) are specified on this product’s technical data sheet and on the back label.

This depends on the wine and its age, as specified on the technical data sheet where relevant. As a general rule, our powerful age-worthy wines benefit from being decanted 30 minutes to 1 hour before tasting; lighter wines, whites and rosés can be served directly.
