The Minervois Rouge Clots de Pals from Domaine des Homs is an authentic expression of the Languedoc terroir. Produced mainly with Syrah and Grenache grapes, this red wine is distinguished by its complexity and depth. On the nose, it reveals intense aromas of ripe black fruits like plums and blackberries, skillfully integrated with spicy notes and a slight hint of Mediterranean aromatic herbs.

On the palate, the structure is robust yet balanced, with mature tannins harmoniously blending with lasting freshness. This balance gives the wine a pleasant drinkability, making it ideal for pairing with rich dishes like grilled red meats, stews, or aged cheeses.

Maturing in oak barrels for a few months adds an additional layer of complexity, endowing the Minervois Rouge Clots de Pals with an elegant hint of vanilla and chocolate, which develops and intensifies with aging.

Perfect to enjoy now, it also has aging potential that promises to evolve beautifully over the coming years. A jewel of Domaine des Homs that enchants with its authenticity and quality.


The winery

Domaine des Homs – Winery in Minervois (Aude, Occitanie)

Discover the story and wines of Domaine des Homs.

An organic estate located in the heart of the Minervois (Rieux-Minervois, Aude) producing AOC Minervois and Vin de Pays d’Oc wines, as well as olive oil and local products.
Region: Minervois (Aude, Occitanie)
Country: Francia
Grapes: Chardonnay, Viognier, Cinsault, Syrah, Grenache, Muscat d'Alexandrie, Muscat Petit Grain
Certified organic by ECOCERT since 2006. Estate and vineyards in the Minervois, Aude, on the border between Carcassonne and Narbonne. Notable cuvées: Amandier, Clots de Pals, Paul, as well as Chardonnay and Viognier in Vin de Pays d’Oc. Low-intervention winemaking practices: fermentations with indigenous yeasts and, for some labels, no added sulfites at vatting. Integrated production with olive growing and wine tourism offerings.
Winery history
The estate stands on the site of a Roman/Carolingian villa where vines and olive trees were cultivated. It has been managed by the de Crozals family for generations and maintains a strong territorial continuity tied to the Minervois. The property reflects the long history of agricultural activity on the site and carries that legacy forward with careful attention to traditional practices and biodiversity.
Production philosophy
Grown under ECOCERT‑certified organic farming, with a low‑intervention winemaking approach: fermentations are often carried out by indigenous yeasts, and practices aim to preserve soil and biodiversity. Some cuvées are vinified without the addition of sulphites at encuvage.
Terroir and vineyards
The vineyards are located in the Minervois, between Carcassonne and Narbonne, on stony terraces at the foot of the Montagne Noire; the estate is close to the Espace Naturel Sensible de l’Estagnol and also cultivates olive and fruit trees to promote biodiversity.
