Languedoc Roussillon, a remarkable land fashioned by History but also by the light, the wind and the Mediterranean... The art of winegrowing was imported here by the major ancient civilisations – the Greeks, Romans, Benedictines and Cathars all left their imprint.
The Languedoc Roussillon enjoys a wonderful geological diversity: shale, marl, roundstone, sandy-clay...which gives the wines their aroma and taste.
But the terroir is not only the soil. It is also the generous climate of sun and wind, and the garrigue scrubland, whose vegetation is fragrant with rosemary, fennel, mint and almond, which all give strength and nuance to our wines.

The mission of Domaines Virginie
Since 1989, Domaines Virginie has grown wine in Languedoc-Roussillon. This young company, formed by businessmen and winegrowers in the region, has developed new fermentation techniques and opened up to new markets.
In 1999, the Domaines Virginie joined the Castel Group, which was keen to acquire a successful winemaking tool in Languedoc-Roussillon.
