Situated just 30 kilometers from the Mediterranean sea at altitudes of 100 to 180 meters, the vineyards at Caraguilhes are exposed to the north west wind which is a natural aide, keeping the vines healthy by limiting fungal diseases and reducing the population of harmful insects. The great diversity of the soils: clay, sandy clay, limestone and rolled pebbles, as well as that of the different views of the vineyard create ideal production conditions. Organic viticulture is the passion of Caraguilhes and their objective is to create exceptionally-crafted wines with a distinct style and richness, using traditional wine-making techniques. Caraguilhes are the largest grower of certified organically-grown grapes in the Corbières region. Ecocert certification – organically grown grapes with no pesticides or herbicides.
