What makes this wine special?

Les Garrigues, a powerful, elegant wine from the Vaisse estate, captures the essence of Mediterranean terroir and offers a unique sensory experience every time it is tasted.

More info

Les Garrigues from the Vaisse estate is a red wine made from Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot cultivated on Aniane soil abundant in rounded pebbles. This Hérault terroir provides a remarkable structure and a great deal of aromatic complexity. After careful harvesting by hand, the winemaking process follows the traditional method, resulting in the best possible expression of these grape varieties. As aging takes place in oak barrels for 24 months, the wine develops woody notes and a lovely, rounded style. Ageing is followed by an additional 24 months in the bottle, a process that allows the wine to further develop and mature.
The result is a full-bodied elixir, both powerful and elegant at the same time, that, from the moment it can be enjoyed, grows in depth and complexity with some years of additional ageing. This wine matches perfectly with rich and flavourful dishes such as roasted leg of lamb with herbes de Provence, roasted duck breast or a platter of fine cheese.


Ask Margaux, your digital wine guide, a question

Pierre Vaïsse founded his estate in Aniane which sits in the Terrasses du Larzac appellation in 2007. He started with only two hectares of vines and would vinify the grapes in a 10m2 garage. He was lucky enough to be guided by Frédéric Pourtalié from Domaine Moncalmès and Laurent Vaillé from Grange des Pères, two of his friends who encouraged him to leave his position as a forestry technician and become a winemaker.
Today, he owns 13 hectares nestled on the arid, limestone Larzac terraces where he grows mainly Syrah and Mourvèdre. He uses six of these hectares to produce his wine and delivers the grapes from the rest to a cooperative. In the winery, ageing takes place over a long period of time (24 months for the reds). Pierre Vaïsse’s wines stand out thanks to their incredibly silky texture, aromas typical of the southern France, purity and intensity. Truly magnificent wines! A Terrasses du Larzac gem to be followed very closely.
