Red Wine from France - Languedoc
4.346153700 star rating 26 Reviews
A 2025 Wine Champion for explorers! If you like your reds ‘herby, peppery and with structure’, this is the wine for you and at a price described as ‘mad’ given the quality. A grenache-syrah blend southern France’s Massif Central, it’s packed with ripe fruit and offered ‘more depth and punch than many at this price and above.’

LGI

LGI was the brainchild of Alain Grignon, formerly of the Foncalieu co-operative group, who had the vision of making inexpensive wines designed specifically for the export market. In this he was helped at the beginning by English merchant, and ex- Waitrose buyer, Mark Lynton.

Most of the wines are sourced from a number of cooperatives, mostly along an axe between Carcassonne and Béziers with some fruit also coming from Limoux and from further away in Gascony. The winemaking and bottling is supervised by Xavier Roger, a Sancerrois and recently promoted to chief executive.

The core business remains at entry-level prices, which, for The Society, means delicious wines like Domaine Laborie, Domaine Raynier and the marsanne-viognier blend, Pierre Borde, but LGI is also able to act as broker for several top estates. For The Society, this includes Domaine Barroubio in Saint-Jean de Minervois and Christophe Barbier in La Clape.

Purplish crimson. Quite concentrated, offering lots to get your teeth into. Classic Languedoc red that will almost certainly last longer than you think. Good value. JancisRobinson.com
