Mont Gravet Pays d'Oc GSM
A vibrant wine with aromas of ripe raspberry, black cherry, red plum, blackberry, violet, and sweet spice, followed by pepper, clove, earth, and a faint cocoa note.

Mont Gravet focuses on approachable southern French wines that emphasize varietal character and regional style. This GSM is sourced from vineyards around Argeliers in the eastern Languedoc, where Mediterranean warmth, hillside exposure, and surrounding garrigue help shape the wine’s ripe fruit and savory herbal character.
