Domaine L'Hortus

Domaine L'Hortus

The Domaine de l'Hortus was born in the 70s thanks to the meeting of a man with a place: that of Jean Orliac, passionate about climbing, with thecliffs of Hortus and Pic Saint Loup, north of Montpellier. Graduated in agronomy, he detects a potential crunch on these cones of scree and these steep valleys.

Without much means, he then embarked on the planting of 4ha of vines ... a long Way of the Cross, Mr Orliac did not release his first vintage until 15 years later, in 1990. A huge success followed and the estate now has 70 ha working to the reputation of the Pic Saint Loup appellation. This unique terroir delivers colorful, fine and delicate wines, on silky tannins and an aromatic faithful to its birthplace, which ranges from eucalyptus, mint and rosemary to notes of pepper. The whole is of great buvality and a certain balance. A very safe bet!
