Περιγραφή
Our CLAUDE VAL wines are made with grapes selected from the best Languedoc vineyards: Limoux, Carcassonne /
Puicheric (Minervois) and Pézenas. Thanks to the modern equipment and the know- how of our oenologists, we made simple
and uncomplicated wines, and their price never ceases to amaze. There is no harm in doing good at a small price! We are
looking for the expression of the fruit, the suppleness, the immediate pleasure, the pleasant wine.
