Explore the Wonderful Wines of Languedoc Roussillon!

Thu, Aug 31, 23

Languedoc Roussillon is nestled between the Mediterranean Sea and the Pyrenees mountains. This unique terrain, combined with the region's sun-drenched climate, lends a distinct character to the wines produced here. From crisp whites to robust reds and elegant rosés, Languedoc Roussillon offers a wine for every palate.

Today, we're featuring five standout wines from this region:

1. Chateau Saint Roch White Old Vines

This white wine is a true testament to the power of old vines. Made from Grenache Blanc and Roussanne grapes grown in vineyards that are up to 100 years old, the Chateau Saint Roch White Old Vines is a full-bodied and aromatic wine. Expect flavors of citrus fruits, pear, and white flowers, accompanied by a refreshing acidity that makes it perfect for pairing with seafood dishes.

2. Chateau Saint Roch Kerbuccio Maury Sec

Next, we have the Chateau Saint Roch Kerbuccio Maury Sec, a red wine that showcases the richness of the region's terroir. A blend of Syrah, Grenache, and Mourvèdre, this wine offers a powerful bouquet of black fruits, spice, and licorice. It's an excellent choice to accompany hearty meat dishes.

3. Gerard Bertrand Cote Des Roses Rosé

The Gerard Bertrand Cote Des Roses Rosé is a celebration of the Languedoc Roussillon region's ability to produce world-class rosés. This wine is fresh and vibrant, with flavors of grapefruit and red berries. Its elegant bottle, complete with a rose-shaped base, makes it a perfect gift for any wine lover.

4. Gerard Bertrand Heresie Corbieres

Corbieres has become the village best known for making high quality reds in the region, and this wine is one that is full of finesse and that pairs well with the power the area is known for. Another GSM blend, like the Kerbuccio, this wine shows that when blending these three grapes a range of wines can be made!

5. Domaine Lafage Tessellae Carignan

Last but certainly not least, the Domaine Lafage Tessellae Carignan is a red wine that showcases the potential of the Carignan grape. This wine is rich and velvety, with flavors of dark fruits and a hint of spice. It's a wine that's sure to impress even the most discerning of palates.
