    Description of IGP Pays d'Hérault "Le Loup dans la Bergerie"

    Estate

    Domaine de l'Hortus is a well-regarded estate in the Languedoc region, known for producing elegant and expressive red wines that truly reflect the Mediterranean terroir. This family-run estate combines traditional practices with modern techniques to create authentic wines.

    Vineyard

    Located in the dynamic Languedoc wine region, the vineyard benefits from a Mediterranean climate with hot, dry summers and cool nights that promote optimal grape ripening. The soils, mainly composed of schist and sandstone, impart mineral notes and aromatic complexity to the wines.

    Wine

    This IGP Pays d'Hérault red wine 2021 from Domaine de l'Hortus is characterized by its aromatic richness and harmonious balance between fruit and tannic structure. The blend of Merlot, Syrah, and Grenache offers an intense bouquet and a supple palate with a persistent finish.

    Vintage

    The 2021 vintage was marked by good ripening thanks to a dry and sunny summer, producing concentrated and balanced grapes. This vintage delivers an expressive wine that is approachable now but will benefit from further aging in the coming years.

    Vinification & Aging

    Careful vinification preserves the freshness of the fruity aromas. Aging in stainless steel tanks maintains a pure and lively aromatic profile while ensuring good tannic structure without excess.

    Grape Variety

    Merlot - Syrah - Grenache

    Occasions

    Perfect for a friendly dinner, convivial business meal, or a generous Sunday family lunch.
