Saint-Chinian South France wines

 

wine crateAt the foot of the Montagne-Noire (Black Mountains) and covering the picturesque Orb valley, the Saint-Chinian wine appellation was formed in 1982 to group together the wine production from twenty villages, centering around the town of Saint-Chinian. With its strong focus on high quality wine production, Saint-Chinian South France wines have won a well-deserved reputation for fruity, full-bodied South of France wines. Although some rose is produced, my preference is to stick with the reds.

 

Best Saint-Chinian South France wines

The best Saint-Chinian wines to look out for include:

  • Mas Champart (see here for Mas Champart tasting notes)
  • Domaine Canet Valette - visit this page from the Wine Doctor website for further information about this wine and the domain (Domaine Canet Valette)
  • Domaine Clos Bagatelle

If you are in a restaurant and you want to taste a good South France wine then I would recommend choosing either a Saint Chiniann wine, a Minervois or a Faugeres. You won't go far wrong. For more great Languedoc wines please read our article Best South France Wines. For further details about the wines of St Chinian please visit the Saint-Chinian wine AOC website.
