Domaine Pierre Cros


An ex-rugby player, Pierre Cros is known as the King of Concentration – so, unsurprisingly, his wines are full-bodied and entirely superb! Les Aspres regularly wins the coveted three-star award from Guide Hachette, and Pierre also produces a stunning red wine, aptly named 'Tradition'.
    
Some of his vines were planted as far back as 1905, and the results are no less than historic - look out in particular, for his 'Vieilles Vignes', made from the Carignan grape. On top of his classics Monsieur Cros is an experimental wine genius continually pushing the boundaries with a wine making savoir faire. His wines certainly live to the Languedoc motto 'where creativity meets diversity'.
