Clos Du Gravillas
On the high slopes of Saint-Jean-de-Minervois, in the Minervois region, Clos du Gravillas cultivates a vineyard planted on very stony, high-altitude limestone soils. This geological and climatic context promotes gradual ripening and naturally taut balances.
The estate cultivates a variety of grape varieties—Carignan, Terret, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Mourvèdre—all organically farmed. Winemaking is carried out with precision, prioritizing fruit purity and judicious extraction. This approach results in luminous wines, structured by a tension unusual for the region.
The wines offer digestible and vertical profiles, combining depth and freshness without heaviness. The entire body of work at Clos du Gravillas presents a unique and coherent interpretation of Minervois, highlighting altitude, soil type, and a constant pursuit of balance.
