Marc Barriot Clot de l'Origine
Marc Barriot Clot de l'Origine operates in Maury, the steep schist-terraced appellation of Languedoc-Roussillon where Grenache and Carignan thrive in Mediterranean heat. The winery's portfolio centers on wines built from the region's signature varieties—Grenache, Syrah, and Carignan—combined with white grapes like Macabeo and Grenache Gris. Soif de Plaisir, a blend of Grenache, Syrah, and Carignan, and the Maury cuvée, which layers Macabeo, Carignan, Grenache Gris, and Grenache, represent the house's core expressions. Le p'tit Barriot Rouge, a Syrah-based wine, rounds out the range. These wines have been assessed by Wine Advocate, Wine Spectator, and Falstaff. Maury's terroir—rocky, mineral-rich soils and a continental climate moderated by altitude—shapes the character of wines from this corner of southern France, where traditional Mediterranean varieties find both structure and warmth.
