Mas de Figuier

AOP Pic Saint Loup

Mas de Figuier 15 ha, north of Montpellier is located at the East of the Pic Saint Loup near Vacquières. The pic culminates at 648m and faces the Hortus mountain, 500m high, creating a mico-climate of rainfalls and wind circulation. In the family hamlet, vineyards were first planted in 1690 by the Lord de Leuze whose motto is still up to date, “strong and rigorous”! The 60ha oak tree forest biodiversity nourishes the surrounding plots. A feature, the balance of the wines to be found in the soil made of sandstone & clay which hold the humidity coming from occasional and powerful rains without compacting the roots.
