Description

Château de Lancyre is a renowned wine producer located in the Coste d'Aleyrac region of France. The history of this estate dates back to the 16th century when it was first established by the Lancyre family. Today, the estate is owned by the Durand and Valentin families who have continued the tradition of producing exceptional wines.

The vineyards of Château de Lancyre are situated on the slopes of the Pic Saint-Loup mountain range, which provides a unique terroir for the grapes to grow. The soils are composed of limestone and clay, which impart a distinct minerality to the wines. The climate is Mediterranean, with hot summers and mild winters, allowing the grapes to ripen fully and develop complex flavours.

The style of production at Château de Lancyre is focused on producing high-quality wines that reflect the terroir and the grape varieties used. The estate produces a range of red, white and rosé wines, with the red wines being the most highly regarded. The red wines are made from a blend of Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre and Carignan grapes, which are hand-harvested and fermented in stainless steel tanks. The wines are then aged in oak barrels for up to 18 months, which adds complexity and depth to the final product.

The white wines produced by Château de Lancyre are made from a blend of Roussanne, Marsanne and Viognier grapes. The grapes are harvested by hand and fermented in stainless steel tanks to preserve the delicate aromas and flavours. The wines are then aged in oak barrels for up to 12 months, which adds a subtle oakiness to the final product.

The rosé wines produced by Château de Lancyre are made from a blend of Grenache, Syrah and Cinsault grapes. The grapes are harvested by hand and fermented in stainless steel tanks to preserve the fresh fruit flavours. The wines are then aged in oak barrels for up to 6 months, which adds a hint of complexity to the final product.

Overall, Château de Lancyre is a producer of exceptional wines that reflect the unique terroir of the Coste d'Aleyrac region. The estate's commitment to quality and tradition has earned it a reputation as one of the finest wine producers in France.
