Chateau la Liquiere
Bernard Vidal
COUNTRY: France
REGION: Languedoc-Roussillon
APPELLATION: AOC Coteaux du Languedoc
Château la Liquière has been owned for several generations by the Vidal-Dumoulin family. There are sixty hectares of vineyards, all of which are situated within the AOC Faugères appellation. The winery produces thirteen different wines each vintage - eight reds, three whites, and two rosés.
These wines represent the finest expression of the local terroir and are made using expertise and experience. The red varieties cultivated are Grenache Noir, Syrah, Carignan, Mourvedre, and Cinsault. For the whites, Grenache Blanc, Roussanne, Terret, and Clairette are grown. Two wineries are located on the estate: a traditional one, equipped with underground vats to work with gravity, and a modern, more functional entity.
The philosophy is to create wines that express the purity of each individual grape varietal which is also expressed through the terroir with minimal intervention that expresses the characteristics that are typical of Southern France. Each wine is created so that it can tell its own story.

Wine Region:
Languedoc-Roussillon
Much of the fertile plains of Languedoc-Roussillon have been dedicated to agriculture and viniculture. One of the major wine growing regions in France, the historic area of Languedoc encompassed a far larger portion of Southern France including much of Provence and current Occitanie; Roussillon, on the other hand, is significantly smaller and just about the area of the East Pyrenees.
About one-third of all vines used in French viniculture are in this area. The climate of this somewhat dry region – with the some parts of the area receiving the least amount of rain in the entire country – as well a strong winds coming from off coast, aid the region in sustaining high levels of organic production and contribute to its standing as the leader in French organic winemaking.
