Clos du Gravillas was acquired by John and Nicole Bojanowski, a young Franco-American couple, in 1996. Since then they have set about trying to produce excellent wines in the Minervois appellation. Nicole planted Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Mourvèdre in the high potential terroir of St. Jean de Minervois. In 1999 they re-introduced a few hectares of Carignan that was planted in 1911 and some Grenache Gris, which today represent key varieties in their portfolio.
