Expert opinion
RVF - La Revue du Vin de France / Guide des Meilleurs Vins de France
Domain rated (guide 2023) Selected (We remind you that this guide is a prize list and as such, all the domains that appear in it, even without a star, represent, in our eyes, the excellence of French production).
About the domain :
Gaëlle and Florian met in Burgundy and decided to settle in the Languedoc region in early 2010. After a few years of research, the Franco-German couple settled in Fontjoncouse, where they cultivate plots of old vines. Careful attention is paid to barrel ageing. A great boost for this wild and stony sector of the Corbières. This is an estate that will go far!
