Château Bouisset
Terres Salées Rouge 2023
The Hills of Narbonne and the Lands of Pérignan | Red | 2023
This Merlot, grown on vines approximately fifty years old, is cultivated on a unique terroir—a former salt marsh—that provides exceptional growing conditions. Because the vines are root-pruned, their roots have grown deep into the soil, ensuring uniform ripening. The winemaking process emphasizes quality, with punch-down extraction aimed at extracting the finest tannins. Aging in barrels for several months imparts aroma to the wine while adding a subtle woody touch to its natural saline notes.

Château Bouisset
On the limestone soils of La Clape, Château Bouisset cultivates Syrah and Mourvèdre with the aim of producing full-bodied yet structured reds. The sea breeze brings a welcome freshness that tightens the juices and lightens the region’s natural power. The wines feature generous black fruit, a spicy structure, and a broad yet disciplined texture. The aging, carefully managed, supports the body without hardening it. A winery that clearly highlights the uniqueness of this windswept Mediterranean plateau.
