Les Heretiques is a nod to the Cathars, a heretical Christian group once based in the Languedoc but wiped out by order of Pope Innocent III in 1208. It is bright and juicy with blackberries, purple flowers and cedar notes; the palate is fresh, dark and balanced with black raspberry and touches of cassis and anise. Marie-Pierre Iché runs Château d'Oupia, named after a medieval castle. The Carignan \u0026amp; Cinsault go through full carbonic maceration while the Grenache \u0026amp; Syrah are vinified in concrete. 30-year old vines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePays D'Hérault IGP | Languedoc, France\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eused to be ….\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChateau d'Oupia VdP \u003cbr\u003e100% Carignon (breaking the rules in Minervois - since Carignon must be blended to have the designation \"Minervois\" - hence, the \"Heretiques\").
