This Vin du Pays d’Oc has been aged in an oak barrel giving it a light well rounded flavour of red and and fruites and that beautiful scent of ‘garrique’, ideal with duck, red meat and small game.

This wine is exclusively made from the Syrah grape. Price around €5.60. Preignes le Vieux is worth visiting – the tasting room is in a lovely setting.

Five generations of vignerons, 150 Ha. of vines, rows and rows of wooden vats and barrels. You will find this domaine on the left off the N112 Beziers- Agde road just past the sign to the airport.
