Domaine d’Aubaret houses a chapel which used to be a place of pilgrimage. Located north-west of Pézenas, famed for its connections with Molière, amidst the foothills of Faugères, it basks in the environment and characteristics typical of this terroir.
The Mediterranean-type climate, which is typical throughout the appellation area, is marked by a significantly hot, dry season, mitigated by the effect of the landform. Due to the diversity and unique features of the different areas, major zones have been defined by their weather patterns and soil types.
There is a huge variety of soil types but hard limestone in the garrigue and schist soils are the most widespread. There is also gravel washed down by Languedoc’s rivers.
