Vignoble du Loup Blanc
The Vignoble du Loup Blanc is located in the hamlet of La Roueyre, near Bize-Minervois. It's the domain of Alain Rochard, Nicolas Gaignon, Carine and Laurent Farre, who have been partners since acquiring the estate in 2002.

The Loup Blanc vineyard comprises 18 hectares of small plots in Bize, in the part of the Minervois known as "Les Causses", a terroir in the foothills of the Montagne Noire, at the northeast end of the appellation. A wide variety of Languedoc grape varieties take root in limestone and red clay soils. The altitude and cool nights enable the grapes to ripen slowly. The Vignoble du Loup Blanc is cultivated using certified organic methods, extended by biodynamic practices. Vinification is carried out as naturally as possible.

Vignoble du Loup Blanc wines are made with a healthy, rich approach, aiming to preserve freshness and a pure expression of terroir, combining complexity, minerality and balance.
