“The nose is dominated by aromas of black fruit, toast, smoke, earth, and spices, which carry through to a full-bodied palate with silky tannins. A flavorful and precise finish. Made from organically grown grapes. Ready to drink now or for aging.” (James Suckling 2023).

About the estate:
Like many estates in the Corbières region, Pech-Latt has monastic origins: the estate was once part of the nearby Lagrasse Abbey, whose vineyard is first documented in 784. Located at the foot of Mount Alaric, this vast estate (340 ha, including 160 ha of vineyards) has been farmed organically since 1991. Lise Sadirac is currently the estate manager of the property, which belongs to the Burgundy-based Louis Max group.

5-Star Rated Estate (Outstanding Production)
About the estate:
At the foot of Mount Alaric, the Pech-Latt vineyards—certified organic—are planted on limestone and red marl soils. This requires a great deal of work, as the estate spans over 90 hectares, with a diverse mix of grape varieties that gives pride of place to Carignan and Grenache Noir, as well as Marsanne for white wines. After destemming—except for a portion of the Carignan grapes—the musts undergo extended fermentation, followed by aging in tanks or, for certain old vines, in oak barrels.
