Located between Narbonne and Carcassonne, the Corbières vineyard has been recognized as an Appellation d’Origine Contrôlée (AOC) since 1985. A historic and emblematic wine region of southern France, it benefits from a Mediterranean climate—dry, sunny, and warm—ideal for viticulture, which has been practiced here since the Middle Ages.
Viticultural practices in this region are deeply rooted in history, passed down from generation to generation, each bringing a fresh perspective to the knowledge of their predecessors.
Corbières wines stand out for their ability to combine tradition and innovation, offering authentic, high-quality wines.
The viticultural tradition in Corbières vineyards
What was considered a great innovation in the early 1990s is now seen as a return to natural viticulture practices. Committed to organic farming since 1991, Château Pech-Latt actively promotes biodiversity,recognizing it as a key asset for its terroirs and wines. The estate adopts environmentally friendly practices, eliminating pesticides and chemical inputs in favor of natural treatments, planting hedgerows, and covering the soil with grass to prevent erosion and preserve ecosystems.
The estate also maintains a sheepfold and a bat shelter to naturally regulate insect populations.
This approach reflects a strong commitment to sustainability and respect for nature.
Innovation and quality in Corbières wines
Like an artisan constantly refining their craft, a winemaker learns something new with each day, each season, and each vintage—always striving to enhance the quality of their wines.
Because growing vines and crafting wine from vat to bottle is a "natural" art, closely tied to Nature, each grape variety, harvest, and cuvée contributes its unique authenticity to the final wine.
For over 30 years, Château Pech-Latt has embodied a pioneering approach where innovation is deeply rooted in the land to elevate each wine...
In recent years, an ambitious modernization project has introduced a brand-new stainless steel vat room designed to enhance the quality and aromas of each cuvée.
On the aging front, Château Pech-Latt has implemented parcel-based vinification , a technique that involves fermenting each batch of grapes in separate tanks to preserve the distinct characteristics of each vineyard plot.
