Domaine Les Creisses, a reliable name in the Languedoc wine region
Domaine des Creisses has become a reference in the Languedoc. Its two red cuvées, Les Creisses and Les Brunes, are highly sought after by sommeliers and Michelin-starred restaurants.
Located in Valros (6 km from Pézenas) in the Hérault region, the Domaine des Creisses spans 15 hectares of vineyards, garrigue, woods, and even truffle oak trees. This family-owned estate has been producing wine since 1904. Today, the estate is run by two men: Philippe Chesnelong and Louis Mitjavile.
In 1998, Philippe Chesnelong took over the estate and has since worked to create a great wine of the Languedoc, reflecting the unique terroir of the region. He is assisted by his cousin Louis Mitjavile (from Domaine de l'Aurage) in winemaking and aging. Louis is the son of the famous François Mitjavile, a legendary winemaker from Saint-Emilion known for Tertre-Roteboeuf.
The estate produces two red wines:
- Les Creisses: soil composed of gravel and stony clay-limestone. Grape varieties: cabernet sauvignon, syrah, grenache, mourvèdre, carignan, cinsault.
- Les Brunes: dark basaltic soil, from an ancient lava flow. Grape varieties: cabernet sauvignon, mourvèdre, syrah.
The estate practices sustainable farming: minimal treatments, only when absolutely necessary. The estate has recently been certified as High Environmental Value.
These cuvées are frequently featured on the tables of prestigious French restaurants.

Why buy the wines of Domaine Les Creisses from Languedoc?
Because we love them, and we believe these wines are a perfect addition to your cellar! But as some of our customers have said, "we are not objective, since we tasted them and selected them to sell: we are biased." That’s why we prefer to "defend" our selection with comments from major wine guides, who are more objective than we are:
Guide Bettane + Desseauve: 1★/4. Les Creisses refers to the pebbles. Philippe Chesnelong took over this family estate in 1990. He is assisted by his cousin Louis Mitjavile, whose fame has extended far beyond Saint-Emilion. The cuvée Les Brunes generally showcases power, while the cuvée Les Creisses, more immediate, bursts with flavors. A truly great address.
