Le Château Castigno possède ses vignes sur le terroir argilo-calcaires du plateau d'Assignan, sur les hauteurs de l'AOP Saint-Chinian. Vieilles de plus de 70 ans pour les plus anciennes, elles sont conduites sous les principes de l'agriculture biologique.
Une nouvelle cave unique en son genre en Occitanie, en forme de bouteille de vin couchée au milieu des vignes, a vu le jour en 2018. Ce chai de près de 80 mètres de long propose des visites de cave au public. Le caveau de dégustation vous permet de découvrir la production des vins rouges, vins blancs, vins rosés et vin effervescent du domaine.
Sur l'histoire du domaine, lire cet article.
Lorsque le domaine a été créé il y a une dizaine d'année, les vinifications avaient été confiées à Philippe Cambie, grand vinificateur du Rhône Sud. Depuis sa mort, Clément Mengus (anciennement Cazaban) a pris la relève.
Terra Casta est un assemblage de Carignan et Syrah vinifiés en grappes entières
Dégustation : La robe est grenant sombre translucide. Le nez est plutôt fermé / réduit, laissant s'échapper des notes fumées et de fruit confit. La bouche est ronde, ample, veloutée, avec une matière charnue / pulpeuse et un fruit indécemment gourmand. En un mot, c'est d'la bombe ! La finale est encore plus bombesque, avec une fraîcheur de dingue, un fruit jouissif, des épices en veux-tu en voilà... Méchamment addictif !

One of the widest selections of the web of authors' wines and craftsmen
What is an author wine?
This can be so diverse depending on the personality of their sire, that it is easier to define what it is not. An author wine is anything but a standard, stereotypical wine, made to please as many people as possible. It is therefore rarely produced in millions of copies, copying itself from vintage in vintage.
An author wine is therefore a wine that does not look like that of the neighbor. Which from year to year will evolve according to the vagaries of the weather and the mood of the author - the two that can be linked. Because the author does not rely on market studies to carry out his boat. He makes his wine as he feels, as he likes, as he can, sometimes ... and too bad if he does not please everyone.
This is why author wines are sometimes classified as "table wine" or "France wine". Because the winemaker did not plan the authorized grape variety*, makes the assembly or vinification recommended in the name **. He is often a bit rebellious, our author. But that is why we like it! ... That said, author's wines are not systematically marginal: they are present in most of the appellations, and can be part of the elite of these this***. Because they are not content to have personality: they are good, in addition! With in general aDegree of TorchabilityVery high: we never tire of it at the end of the first sip.
As author's wines are not chaptalized, levied, hacked ... They can have very different profiles depending on the vintage. It is up to us (resellers and consumers) to accept them as they are, and to remain faithful to the producers, because they need us to continue their activity.
