Domaine du Grand Arc

About the estate

The Domaine du Grand Arc estate was founded in 1995 by Fabienne and Bruno Schenck in Cucugnan, located in the south of the Corbières appellation. Covering a vineyard area of 25 hectares, the estate cultivates grape varieties including Grenache, Syrah, Cinsault, Mourvèdre, and Carignan vines that are sometimes over a century old. Situated in a mountainous zone, the vineyards grow on clay-limestone and siliceous soils shaped by local climatic conditions. The viticultural approach avoids the use of fertilizers and insecticides, featuring careful manual harvesting. Since the 2016 vintage, the estate's wines have been certified organic by Ecocert.
