HISTORY
Loriu, little river in Occitan, evokes calm and serenity. A wine created by an enthusiastic group of winegrowers for who organic agriculture is more than just a philosophy.
VINEYARD
The vines selected for Loriu red are located where Atlantic climatic influences from the West meet Mediterranean winds from the East. The vineyards are planted on limestone and clay soils.
VINIFICATION
To produce the red Loriu, grapes are fermented in tanks during 10 days under controlled temperatures. The wine is then transferred to oak barrels to be matured for 6 months.
