Information about domain Courbissac

The Courbissac domain would not exist had two friends not met: film producer Reinhard Brundig and grower Marc Tempé, well known in Alsace. Their partnership took root in La Livinière, between the Cévennes and the Montagne Noire. We are in the Minervois, a region that has come to embody the rise in quality of the Languedoc vineyards. The climate is ideal, combining the necessary sunshine with damp, cool nights. Marc Tempé intends this new domain to comply with biodynamic principles, his philosophy being to revive the soil. Manual harvesting and cellar sorting also speak of his wonderfully pure respect for the vines.
