Château Puech-Haut

A highly successful mission over the past decade: the Puech-Haut Vineyard Today, it comprises some 100 hectares of vineyards that benefit from a very favorable Mediterranean climate on soils composed of clay and limestone and covered with rounded pebbles—the same type found in Châteauneuf-du-Pape. The grape varieties, selected by the Château Puech-Haut which are well-suited to the terroir (Syrah and Grenache in particular), are cultivated using sustainable practices without chemical herbicides, and the grapes are harvested by hand at peak ripeness. Winemaking—in barrels and wooden vats depending on the wine’s color—is carried out separately by grape variety to preserve their full character. Finally, aging, which takes place in barrels, follows criteria that lend the estate’s Coteaux du Languedoc wines a remarkable distinctiveness. Château Puech-Haut.
