The pretty white "Les Mûriers " expresses great finesse. A round attack on the palate, ideally supported by freshness, with fruity sensations of mirabelle plum, white peach and hints of vanilla... Volume and persistence on the finish!

Expert opinion
Bettane & Desseauve
Domaine rated (2016 guide) 1*Star (A serious, recommendable production, in line with what one has the right to expect from its appellation(s))
About the domain :
This Valflaunès estate lies in the shadow of the impressive Pic Saint-Loup. Mas Bruguière was one of the pioneers of the qualitative revival in Languedoc. Xavier, the new generation of the Bruguière family, is exploring biodynamic viticulture, and the results can now be seen in the wines.

Domaine noté (guide 2016) Sélectionné (We remind you that this guide is a prize list and as such, all the estates that appear in it, even without a star, represent, in our eyes, the excellence of French production).
About the domain :
With the help of his wife, Xavier Bruguière has taken over this historic Pic Saint-Loup estate from his father Guilhem. The vines are impeccably tended. The reds are round and aromatic, dominated - as is often the case in this sector - by Syrah, but always well-balanced by Grenache. The white Les Mûriers is a consistent wine to be drunk young, evolving towards greater freshness. The range extends from the simple, fruity Vinam de Calcadiz, through L'Arbouse, always fresh and fragrant, to the main cuvée La Grenadière. A new Syrah cuvée, Le Septième - in reference to the seventh generation - is gradually finding its feet, with a smoother ageing process.
