Estate
La Croix Gratiot
The
estate
At the heart of the Languedoc and Picpoul de Pinet appellations, La Croix Gratiot estate is rooted in a terroir rich in colors. Nestled on clay-limestone hills and caressed by sea breezes laden with the scents of the garrigue, our vineyard stretches over 35 hectares.
Anaïs
and
Yves
Here, the passion for wine is passed from father to daughter. Yves, along with his brother Hugues, cultivated the vines on the family lands before founding the cellar in 2004. His daughter, Anaïs, after traveling the world and enhancing her expertise, returned to her family roots, determined to perpetuate and renew the art of winemaking.
Our
Philosophy
Our philosophy is grounded in a deep respect for nature, the terroir, and humanity. Guided by biodynamic principles, we aspire to viticulture that lives in harmony with its ecosystem, valuing biodiversity and environmental balance.

about us
“Anaïs Ricôme, the iconoclast of Picpoul de Pinet.”
“She did her training in New Zealand and continually experiments in the vineyard as well as in the cellar.”Trois figures inspirantes au salon Millésime Bio, january 2023
“Nine young women who lead with brilliance, innovate, and shift the boundaries.”
“Aging in jars tightens and lengthens the wines, it's magical!”La vigne au féminin, november 2023
An art
of living
Sensitive to art and music, La Croix Gratiot takes pleasure in awakening the senses to gustatory or artistic emotions. Our estate is a crossroads where conviviality and creativity come together through festive events and artistic collaborations.
