Château Maris sits in Minervois La Livinière, the heart of Languedoc-Roussillon's limestone plateau. The winery draws from old-vine parcels to craft wines of structure and depth. Les Anciens, a Grenache and Carignan blend, demonstrates the region's capacity for dark-fruited intensity and mineral grip. Old Vines Syrah and La Touge, both built on Syrah, show the variety's peppery spine and dark plum character in this sun-exposed terroir. The wines have been assessed by Wine Spectator, Wine Enthusiast, Wine Advocate, Decanter, and Falstaff. Minervois La Livinière's schist and limestone soils yield wines with natural acidity and savory depth—a counterpoint to the region's warmer climate.
