In a few words ...
Available in both red and white, this cuvée comes from the estate's finest terroirs, those with the healthiest water management. These are the parcels with the best exposure to the climate, with soils that drain well and are deep enough to build up a sufficiently large water reserve so that the plant does not suffer from summer drought.

this Pic Saint-Loup is a must-have in your cellar. A generous wine, with a beautiful concentration of black fruits on the nose. Juicy on the palate, with extremely fine tannins and incredible chewiness.

Uncompromising quality and an estate that never disappoints. The Hortus is on the table of every good restaurant in the region, and surely not by chance.

I like it, but in truth it lacks a little roundness. Otherwise, it's rather nice with red fruits, garrigue and a freshness... you're scared!

A lovely red wine with roundness and hints of red fruit. I discovered this wine in the Guide Hachette with a super two-star rating.

This Hortus estate remains the benchmark for Pic Saint-Loup. The quality is undeniable, year after year.
