Côteaux du Languedoc
See Côteaux du Languedoc producers See a list of Côteaux du Languedoc wines
The Coteaux Du Languedoc appellation is either a useful assemblage of the
top enclaves in the Hérault Department or an extremely unhelpful conglomeration
of vastly different sub-regions which would be more helpfully categorised
independently. Whatever one's opinion, it is not short of both significance and
potential, running along the Mediterranean coast from Narbonne almost as far
East as Nîmes and covering over 10,000 hectares and some of the most
attractive and wonderfully-situated vineyards in France.
Several of its sub-appellations are fighting for full Appellation Contrôlée
status, the most famous being La Clape, Picpoul de Pinet and
Pic Saint Loup. Of the others, high quality wines are now being produced
in, inter alia, Montpeyroux, Grés De Montpellier and Les
Terrasses de Larzac. All the principle grapes are represented, with
Carignan and Cinsualt reduced to a maximum of 40% apiece to
encourage more fashionable varieties, especially Syrah and
Mourvèdre. The terroir is equally diverse, with limestone, schist,
sand and clay all evidenced.

Old-vine Carignan is quite a popular term these days, its implication being that because the vines have been there a long time, that they has acquired a mysterious veneer of quality that is sometimes lacking in this, the putative work-horse variety of the region. Caveat emptor! Some old vine ... MORE | ||||

Purity and power are the keys in this Coteaux du Languedoc red; the Syrah lends the former, with vibrant red berried fruit and a strand of minerality, which juxtaposes notes of garrigue and aniseed. The Grenache lends the warmth, and rounded palate profile; it is the tension between the ... MORE Drink 2008-2014 . The Wine Advocate Score: 90/100 | ||||
