Les Hauts de Pepys

Jean Girard first planted vines in 1928, his son Eugène took over the property in the 1940s. Everything accelerated in the 80s, when André Girard took the reins of the farm. A new wind then blew on the lands of Malepère with the desire to readapt the grape varieties to the terroir. The old varieties gave way to ones more conducive to the alliance of the climate and the clay soils of the terroir had to offer.

Languedoc-Roussillon

Languedoc-Roussillon, situated in southern France, is renowned for its diverse and high-quality wines. It benefits from a Mediterranean climate, with abundant sunshine, hot summers, and mild winters, ideal for viticulture. Languedoc-Roussillon produces a wide variety of wines, including robust reds from grape varieties like Syrah, Grenache, and Mourvèdre, as well as crisp, refreshing whites and rosés. The area is also known for its excellent sparkling wines, particularly Crémant de Limoux. The diverse terroir, ranging from coastal plains to mountainous areas, and a mix of traditional and innovative winemaking techniques result in wines with distinctive character and depth. Languedoc-Roussillon is a must-visit for wine enthusiasts seeking a rich and varied wine experience.
