Wild Mediterranean Terroir
Corbières Wild Wine Country
Rugged, wild, and ancient - Corbières is where Romans battled terrain as fierce as the wines. Schist, limestone, and Mediterranean scrub create powerful reds. Visit Château de Lastours or Domaine de Fontsainte for wines that taste of 2,000 years of sun and stone.
