Seigneur des Deux Vierges Rouge

Our Terroir


The soil of the Saint-Saturnin vineyards :

Saint-Saturnin is situated at the foot of the Larzac, and its vineyards spread over 760 hectares and over four communes: Arboras, Jonquières, Saint-Guiraud and Saint-Saturnin de Lucian.

The vineyards' altitude varies between 100 metres in Jonquières and 300 metres in Arboras which means wine-picking is spread out accordingly and this provides time for the grapes, whatever their altitude, to acquire optimum maturity.

Here is how we can best describe our "terroir" : a generally clayey-calcareous and extremely stony soil enriched by the subtle changes in geographic climate due to its circumference, and a dry climate in the summer that limits the yield.

The cooperative associates are influential links between the soil and Saint-Saturnin's produce and are first and foremost proud of their "terroir".
