A Taste of Place brings together a patchwork of Southern France finest terroirs, from sea-swept coasts to mountain slopes. Each wine captures a mood, a landscape and a promise of what will unfold in the glass. With labels that guide rather than intimidate, the collection opens the door for curious drinkers to explore Languedoc wine with ease and delight.
Pic Saint-Loup is widely regarded as one of the finest red wine crus in the south of France and a name that carries genuine prestige with trade buyers and educated consumers alike. Sous le Pic is bright, structured, and built for the medium to long term, it positions naturally at the premium end of a portfolio and works equally well for fine dining lists and quality-focused retail.
Syrah: 50% + Grenache Noir: 40% + Carignan: 10%
The vines, 20 to 25 years old, grow on clay and fractured limestone slopes at the foot of the iconic Pic Saint-Loup peak, where warm days and cool nights preserve natural tension and freshness in the fruit. Hand harvesting, natural fermentation without intervention, and two years of patient aging, mostly in stainless steel on fine lees with a small portion in large oak casks, give the wine its clarity, suppleness, and restrained oak influence.
The nose is fragrant and precise, with rhubarb, pomegranate, cranberry, and dried rose, while the palate delivers bright raspberry, tart cherry, black plum, and silky tannins through a long, fluid finish. Pic-Saint-Loup's strong appellation reputation, organic farming, and the wine's unmistakable freshness and finesse make it a straightforward, compelling pitch to any serious buyer.
