Thierry Navarre is the 3rd of a generation of winemakers based on just over 12 hectares in Roquebrun in the Haut Languedoc. It mainly produces wines in the Saint-Chinian appellation from Grenache, Carignan, Cinsault and Syrah vines planted on brown schist soils. These soils, which are very permeable to water, force the vines to infiltrate very deep through the cracks in the rock to find water and resist drought. The vineyard is surrounded by small mountains covered with wild flora where holm oaks, strawberry trees, heather, rosemary and thyme grow.
Thierry Navarre defends a culture of the vine with respect for the land, the cycles, the seasons, without the use of chemicals, with compost, natural preparations, plant infusions. The grapes are harvested by hand and the grapes are rigorously sorted.
Thierry Navarre is also an ardent defender of the rare and forgotten grape varieties of the Languedoc such as Œillades, Terret, Lignère and Ribeyrenc. The latter is one of the oldest grape varieties in the Languedoc that disappeared at the beginning of the 20th century and which he managed to replant on three schist slopes. It produces a thirst-quenching red wine, delicate and truly surprising.
