The Campet Ste Marie range is one of pure authenticity. It is named after the specific terroir on which the grapes are grown. Indeed, they are sourced from small and hilly vineyards, that the French call “Campets”. These “Campets” offer the best conditions for the production of ripe and fruit-forward wines.
These wines come from the far southwest of the Languedoc region, nestled by the Pyrenees foothills. The vineyards greatly benefit from a wide temperature range from day to night and Oceanic influences, with fresh morning breezes.
