Expert opinion
RVF - La Revue du Vin de France / Guide des Meilleurs Vins de France
Rated (guide 2023) 92/100 (Vintage 2019)
Domaine noté (guide 2023) 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 :
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!

Wine that lacks balance, the palate is stiff, the natural side is very pronounced with a clear deviation in the mouth.... It's a shame
