THE VINEYARD
At the heart of a preserved ecosystem of 70 hectares amidst hills and scrubland, Alain and Patricia shape an exceptional terroir in the southern part of the Saint-Chinian appellation, with predominantly clay-limestone soils.
The vineyard boasts an impressive number of grape varieties: Carignan, Syrah, Grenache, Mourvèdre, Muscat, Merlot, Viognier, Roussanne, and Marsanne (recently planted).
While the 30 hectares of vineyards occupy a central place in the estate, they are surrounded by scrubland, woods, and fruit trees (olive, almond, peach, etc.). The integration and coexistence of different crops are one of the distinctive features of the estate.
Located just around forty kilometers from the Mediterranean coast, the Château de Gragnos' location imparts the typical freshness of Southern wines to the grape varieties.
