Aussieres
From the 1950s, Aussières was swept up in the decline of the Languedoc as a credible wine-producing region, and this led to the abandonment of the vineyard and the departure of wine-growers. Fortunately, today, the Languedoc area has turned a new page and is gradually moving toward the production of high-quality wines: Aussières is an excellent example. Acquired in 1999 by Domaines Barons de Rothschild (Lafite), the 550-hectare estate has undergone a vast rehabilitation programme. 167 hectares of vines have been replanted with carefully selected traditional Languedoc grape varieties: Syrah, Grenache, Mourvèdre and Carignan, complemented by Cabernet, Merlot and Chardonnay. The estate buildings were restored at the same time and a new winery was installed in the old cellars, in the heart of the vineyard.
