TERROIR
The castle Lancyre is a wine estate located in the south of France, on
an exceptional terroir of the Languedoc region, the prestigious appellation
of the Pic Saint Loup, being now considered as a ‘‘Cru’’ of the
Languedoc region ! Today the estate covers 78 hectares of vines set
in a fragrant scrubland on a mosaic of terroirs which can offer a very
good range of wines (red, white and rosé!). This cuvée is produced on
Clay-limestone scree and the vintage 2018 was an early harvest, with
high quality because of an exceptional autumn that allowed us to pick
our grapes at optimal maturity. This is one of the greatest vintages of
the last 30 years.

The entire harvest is manual and the grapes are destemmed at the cellar

a traditional method in stainless steel tanks
