About the Winery:
Château La Négly is located in Occitania, facing the Mediterranean Sea, in the Massif de La Clape, one of the sunniest places in France where 13 winds cross in its sky.
La Clape, an ancient island that has been part of the continent since the 14th century, is a collection of soil on which each grape variety finds its happiness.
In the early 1990s, Jean Paux-Rosset and his wife inherited this family estate and completely transformed it in the decades that followed.
Firmly focused on an environmentally friendly culture, La Négly obtained the label «High environmental value» in order to quickly access conversion to organic farming. To preserve, our grapes are picked by hand in an 8 kg crate.
It is in the same spirit that winemaking is carried out: limiting inputs, switching to cold, new fermentation and breeding process.
