Pic Saint Loup

1 product

The Pic Saint Loup appellation, recognized as an AOC since 2013, is one of the northernmost appellations in the Languedoc region, nestled about twenty kilometers north of Montpellier, in the Hérault department. This rich terroir, with its continental climate, is full of predominantly limestone and marl soils. It is therefore no surprise that the wines produced are fruity and full-bodied rosés, accounting for more than three-quarters of the production, and fruity red wines with spicy notes.
