Château de Ciffre is a Languedoc domain that covers seventy hectares of land. Thirty-three of these are used for growing vines across three reputed southern appllations: AOP Languedoc, Faugères, and Saint-Chinian. The vines have been grown organically since 2015, with official certification granted four years later. Running this property, which was acquired in 2007, are Nicolas and Miren de Lorgeril, a forward-thinking and optimistic couple who manage several of the region’s properties with great enthusiasm.
This domain is found 25km from Pézenas and enjoys varied terroirs, some of which are clay and limestone-based, while others are rich in schist. The vines themselves enjoy steep terraces that are ideally exposed on cool, pebbly slopes.
The wines are sought by enthusiasts for their freshness and elegance…
