Since the 1970s, Jean-Pierre Margan, a pioneer of organic farming, has been pampering his vines, situated on an exceptional terroir, and making wines of character and high quality. We come to Château la Canorgue for the pleasure of the eyes.

We like the red, which is quite tannic and goes well with a shoulder of lamb, the white has hints of citrus and exotic fruits.
