Across the 40,000
hectares hosting the 23 Languedoc AOC’s and 19 IGP’s, no wine resembles another, the only consistency being the Mediterranean, ever since ancient times,
influencing climate and growth: mild winters, hot and dry Indian summers, scents from the scrubland and the winds carrying the sea spray. And because most
of Bruno’s selected vineyards are located in-between the Pyrenees to the South and the Black Mountains to the North, they enjoy a privileged climatic position where the excesses of the Mediterranean climate are tempered by the softness of the Atlantic influences. This extraordinary mixture - where the days are sunny and warm, where the wind blows almost continuously and where the nights are cool, produces amazing wines.
