About the estate:

Northwest of Lézignan-Corbières lies a vast estate (180 ha) focused on exports, acquired in 1987 by Anne-Marie and Guilhem Durand. It was the first of its kind in Languedoc-Roussillon. In 2015, it became the first in Languedoc to be acquired by a Chinese group, the importer BHC International Wine Assets Management. Located near the Minervois region, the vineyard is situated on an ancient terrace of the Aude River, rich in rounded pebbles.
