"The Musardises des Grandes Costes is a wine that inspires as much good cheer as the Languedoc sky. Its Cinsault base gives this wine a unique style, complemented by Syrah and Grenache. Rich, full-bodied and ripe, with a lively, fresh and well-structured finish. This is a vibrant wine that leaves no one indifferent."

From vineyard to cellar, a commitment to the environment

The Domaine Les Grandes Costes covers approximately 15 hectares. The vines, aged between 4 and 45 years, are planted with four typically Mediterranean red grape varieties: Syrah, Grenache, Cinsault and Carignan. Pest and disease control is carried out in accordance with the principles of sustainable agriculture to better respect the soil and the environment. All the vines are debudded, suckered, leaf-thinned and green-harvested where necessary. This is done to ensure healthy grapes of excellent ripeness, which guarantee the wine’s quality, aromatic profile and balance. Overall, yields vary between 22 and 33 hectolitres per hectare depending on the plot.
