About La Reserve de l’Aube
The vineyards were established in 1929 by the grandfather of the current owners and was completely modernised in 1990. The vineyard is 46 Ha in size and is made up from a mosaic of terriors all on a plateau at an altitude of 130m above sea level. The vast Languedoc appellation, covering most of the south of France, with 32,000 vineyards produces 80% of France’s table wine. Wine has been made here since at least 135BC. Some of France’s best value wines are to be found among the smaller growers.
