Southern French spirit, Burgundian soul. The partnership of Burgundian winemakers Anne Gros and Jean-Paul Tollot in the Minervois sets a new standard for quality and character in the Languedoc.Finesse and precision are the two main characteristics of these Minervois wineswords more often used to describe Gros Burgundian crus rather than the concentrated reds of the south.Wine from the Languedoc-Roussillon region is produced in the South of France, ranging from the Mediterranean coast to Provence. Cabernet, Merlot, Mourvedre, Grenache, and Syrah are some of the most important red grapes in the region. \n \n The name comes from a combination of two distinct regions. The Languedoc is known for fruit-forward and full-bodied wines that can also be quite complex. Roussillon produces riper and juicier blends, as well as late-harvest and fortified wines. \n \n Most wineries in this region choose to produce blends, as opposed to single varietal wines.
