The domain of Saint Pierre de Serjac is at Puissalicon in the Hérault. It is built on the site of one of the 13 gallo-roman villas of the town. Shards of amphorae are often found there, witnesses to a wine-growing tradition established in the first centuries of our era.

Paul de Chefdebien's great-great-grandfather on his mother's side built the château, a Middle Age, "folly" and an architectural symbol of the heyday of viticulture in the Languedoc. It has now become the symbol of a transition towards a production of quality local wines, the "Vins de Pays".

The terroir consists of hillsides of calcareous clay, which is very good for red grape varieties (Merlot, Syrah, Grenache and Cabernet Sauvignon) and of marl which favours the production of white wines which are silky and round in the mouth (Chardonnay, Vermentino and Muscat Petit Grain). In the same way as at the Abbaye des Monges, we favour a minimum tillage and controlled natural plant cover in order best to preserve the biological balance of the soils and encourage "green manure".

Thanks to high-performance mechanical harvesting equipment, we have a particularly good adaptability during the grape harvests which allows the grapes to attain optimum ripeness. We also possess a pneumatic press and wine-making equipment of high quality in order to obtain Pays des Côtes de Thongue and Pays d'Oc wines of irreproachable quality.
