Wine... A vocation steeped in
history:
Château de Salettes, built on a limestone outcrop nestled amongst the low
slopes, is the historical birthplace of the vineyard whose vines are
spread all around.
The vineyard is planted in a clay and limestone soil highly suited to wine-growing,
and is south facing to take advantage of the sun at its highest point,
conditions that combine to place the vineyard in an outstanding
geographical and climatic location.
The blend of typical varieties that make up the appellation, such as Duras
and Braucol for red wines, or Mauzac and Loin de l’œil for white wines,
are the essence of the wines’ richness and character. Château de Salettes
wines are listed among the great Gaillac wines and were already being
served at the table of king François 1. Ageing takes place in 400-litre oak beam barrels, producing a fine, subtle
wine. |
