About this product +

Producer >

The Croix des Vents range is named after a compass which symbolizes the 4 cardinal points. Produced in Languedoc, South of France, this range epitomizes the different roads that connect Spain and France, producing a complex and varying range of wines, epitomising the diverse terroirs of these areas.

Winemaking >

Ripe grapes are essential to crafting a good Merlot, which is why our winemakers carefully choose the right moment to harvest each particular vineyard. A small part of the crop goes through a hot skin contact maceration providing the fruity aromas of the wine. The rest of the grapes are destemmed and go through a traditional maceration and fermentation for about three weeks. This long process is ideal to extract the varietal’s specific aromatic qualities.
