Languedoc-Pézenas

Languedoc-Pézenas is an appellation in the Languedoc wine region which covers more than 1,500 hectares shared among 15 communes (Adissan, Aspiran, Caux, Fontès, Fouzilhon, Gabian, Lieuran-Cabrières, Montesquieu, Neffiès, Nizas, Paulhan, Peret, Pezenas, Roujan and Vailhan). The vines enjoy a Mediterranean climate and are located on soils consisting of volcanic formations mixed with rock, limestone, marl, sandstone and shale. The Languedoc-Pézenas appellation produces only red wines (Syrah, Grenache Noir, Mourvèdre, Cinsault, Carignan). The wines of Languedoc-Pézenas offer scents of black fruit, garrigue, spice and other aromatics, but they reveal more animal and truffle notes as they age.
