Sobre la bodega y los vinos

At just 23 years old, we decided in 2018 to take over our grandfather's vineyard in the town of Puech, near Lac du Salagou. A Mas made from local red stones stands in the middle of the vineyards. Around them, thyme or frigoule in Occitan grows in abundance, Mas Frigoulet was born.

Mas Frigoulet is exclusively made up of old vines grown on terraces. This architecture, typical of the foothills of Larzac, excludes the use of mechanization and has reinforced our desire to adopt a sustainable method of cultivation.

Throughout the seasons, the work is carried out by hand, allowing us to harvest beautiful bunches during the harvest and preserve the fruit until vatting. We practice traditional vinification for our red wine and light cold pressing for our white and rosé.

Located at the foothills of Larzac, this unique terroir is characterized by its red soils rich in iron oxide called “ruffes”. It offers remarkable geological diversity and a climate conducive to the cultivation of vines.

Red -1931 IGP Pays d’Hérault – Coteaux du Salagou Our first vintage “1931” pays tribute to my grandfather born that year. This wine is made from a blend of Carignan and Grenache. Carignan, planted in 1966, is the majority.

Red – Salagou IGP Pays d’Hérault – Coteaux du Salagou Cuvée from the oldest vine in our village: Œillade, planted in 1956. Emblematic plot, 3 arc-shaped terraces stand out in the hillsides like an amphitheater.

Rosé – Ròsa IGP Pays d’Hérault – Coteaux du Salagou Our rosé cuvée, or Ròsa in Occitan, is made up of an old plot of Œillade and a young Syrah. The blend of these grape varieties gives Ròsa fine notes of peach and strawberry with a saline and delicious finish.

White – Cortes de Baza IGP Pays d’Hérault – Coteaux du Salagou Cultivated at 280 meters above sea level, Sauvignon allows us to obtain a light wine with great freshness. This place is one of the last high altitude terroirs in Hérault. The strong day/night temperature variations make the expression of the aromas of this vintage particularly unique.
