The Domain de Longueroche s vineyards are situated in village of St-Andre de Roquelongue in the very heart of the Corbières region, and more exactly in the land called Fontfroide, land blessed by the gods. The Fontfroide mountain chains run parallel to the coastline and frame the oak and pine forests growing in the winding valleys. The harmony of nature is so perfect that it s easy to imagine that this land was created expressly to grow the finest wine grapes on. The Mediterranean climate is a special type of climate that combines the heat and the drought, forming near-perfect conditions for the wine grape maturation. The vineyards of the Domain produce different varieties of red grapes: Carignan, Grenache, Syrah, Cinsault, Mourvèdre and Cabernet; as well as white Grenache, Chardonnay and Viognier grapes. Our red wine, partially matured in oak barrels, tannic and full-bodied, will seduce you with it s complexity and aging capacity, our rose wine with it s rich mouth feel and fresh fruit flavours, and our white wine - with it s elegant aroma. The harvest of grapes is done entirely by hand
