Côtes du Brian

The Côtes du Brian PGI designation is a Minervois appellation located in the high-altitude area of the commune of Siran, within the "Cru La Livinière" appellation area, in the far northwest of the Hérault department.

The climate is Mediterranean, with low rainfall and mild temperatures, at an altitude of between 250 and 350 meters. The prevailing wind is dry, blowing from the northwest, from the Montagne Noire.

The Côtes du Brian local wines benefit from a terroir with clay-limestone and sandstone soils. The vineyard consists of small terraced and sloping plots, facing south and southwest, on the edge of the Causse plateau, isolated in a garrigue environment.
