Description
Domaine La Rouviole is located in the renowned Cru La Livinière area of Minervois, not far from Carcassone in the Languedoc. For over 70 years, the estate has been in the hands of the Léonor family. In 2020, the domain was acquired by M. et Mme Bour, who plan to invest in the vineyard and cellar to further increase the quality of these lovely terroir-driven wines. Franck Léonor remains as the winemaker, where he skillfully crafts blends of Syrah, Grenache, Cinsault and Carignan from the finest and oldest plots on the estate. The estate, which covers just over 40-hectare estate, includes vines, garrigue and olive trees which flourish in the Mediterranean climate. Great care is taken to hand-harvest the grapes at optimum ripeness and to express the terroir of the area. The wines have been certified organic since the 2011 vintage.
