"Small price, big delight!"

Here's a Sauvignon that will make everyone agree! With a flattering nose of citrus and verbena, followed by a delicately lemony palate and a very reasonable price! It's a perfect match for a seafood platter. In summer, it's a perfect match for aperitifs and barbecues.

Domaine noté (guide 2024) Award-winning wines (The wines of this producer are regularly awarded by the guide)

About the domain :

Situated 5 km from Carcassonne on the banks of the Canal du Midi, this is one of the oldest winegrowing estates in the Malepère region, dating back to the 13th century and the Roger Cahuzac de Caux family, and the vineyard to the 16th century. Acquired in 1871 by the ancestors of the current owners, an old Malepère family, the estate began to flourish around 1900. Its recent revival is linked to the rehabilitation of the winery in 2015 by the Boyer family, who took over the reins of the estate (70 ha, including 55 ha of vines).
