Le Domaine de la Baume: the jewel in the crown of Languedoc-Roussillon

Le Domaine de la Baume, located in Pézénas, close to Béziers, in the heart of the Languedoc-Roussillon, finds its origins in the building of a house by the family Prat in 1882 (of the vermouth Noilly Prat fame). A “J” and a “P” in wrought iron for “Jean Prat” are still at the house’s entrance and on the impressive gates of the courtyard which open onto a stunning building. Le Domaine de la Baume extends over 180 ha, including 146 ha of vines, and symbolises all the charm of the Languedoc.

Terroir: The soils, made of clay, sand and silt, on plateaux or hills, have given rise to a large range of wines. Wines of pleasure, the wines of the Domaine have an extensive aromatic palate and are excellent with food.

Château Haut Mouleyre

Bordeaux AOP, Red

Château Haut-Mouleyre is located in the village of Escoussans, near Cadillac, on the right bank of the Garonne. The vineyard is spread over the south and southwest-facing hillsides overlooking the Garonne, making the most of the sunshine and the good soil drainage. The various plots benefit from the variety of soil conditions on these hillsides, giving the wine plenty of personality. Cadillac is an ancient walled town in the heart of the Entre-Deux-Mers region, populated since the 10th century by the monks who cleared the hillsides and planted the vineyards.

The region is rich in history and heritage, including the famous La Sauve Majeure abbey, built in the 12th century. Various elements give the Château Haut-Mouleyre the potential for very high quality: the exposure and average age of the vineyards, the grape varieties, the soil and the diversity of the plots. The cellar where the wine is made and aged is also worthy of the estate’s ambitions. Considerable work is done in the vineyards to ensure the best grapes and the optimum degree of.

 

 

Domaine de Tholomies

The Domaine de Tholomies is located 30 km north-east of Carcassonne in the Languedoc-Roussillon region, in the commune of La Livinière. Nestled in the foothills of the Montagne Noire, the first traces of its existence date back to the Gallo-Roman period. Tholomies is often compared to a garden because the vegetation on the property is very green thanks to an underground water resource. The wooded parks around the historic Abbey give this estate a rare and authentic charm. The vines, planted on sandstone marl slopes, benefit from the fresh air of the Montagne Noire at the time of ripening; they therefore do not suffer from drought in the summer. The diversity of soils is important. The grape varieties grown on the estate develop a wide range of expressions depending on the soils in which they flourish.

 

Clos des Miran and Clos de la Grande Grange

The Clos de la Grande Grange and Miran vineyard is located in the southern part of the Côtes du Rhône, south of Valence. At the crossroads of three regions: Rhône-Alpes, Languedoc-Roussillon and Provence-Alpes-Côtes d'Azur, it is located on the plain of Mas Conil in Pont-Saint-Esprit in the Gard department.

 

Domaine de la Galinière

In a Mediterranean climate, bathed in mild sunshine in both summer and winter, the Domaine de la Galinière is nestled in the heart of a 90-hectare wine-growing estate, at the foot of the Plateau du Cengle, the first limestone step of the renowned Montagne Sainte-Victoire. This position offers the Domaine an unobstructed view over the valley of vineyards and olive trees, revealing a splendid palette of colours in all seasons.

The Domaine de la Galinière opens its doors to atypical reception areas combining the authenticity of the natural setting with contemporary and elegant architecture, as well as six charming flats with sober and pure lines.

 

 

Domaine Mas Belles Eaux

The Domaine Mas Belles Eaux vineyard covers 90 hectares of sunny hillsides and produces, among others, AOC Coteaux du Languedoc wines. Bathed in light, it benefits from rare geological qualities and a complex and varied terroir: Villafranchian pebbles on red clay and alluvium. After an in-depth study and precise identification of the soils, the entire vineyard of Domaine Mas Belles Eaux was reorganised around traditional Languedoc grape varieties such as Syrah, Grenache, Mourvèdre and Carignan.
The Domaine Mas Belles Eaux and its vaulted cellar built in the 17th century are the oldest buildings on an estate planted with rare species.
