"Bravo!"

An aromatic wine made on the coolest soil in Languedoc. The nose offers beautiful flowers, light smokiness and brioche aromas. On the palate, there's a fine balance between bitterness and sweetness, with a long finish of exotic fruit and citrus. A wine for pleasure!

Rated wine (guide 2023) 92/100 Favorite (Vintage 2020)

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 :

The domaine, which was abandoned when it was taken over by Denys Armand in 1980, is located in the commune of Saint-Mamert-du-Gard, halfway between Uzès and Sommières, in the Massif des Lens. As soon as he arrived, the winemaker undertook a major restoration project, preserving the heritage of old vines, replanting with new grape varieties, and transforming the sheepfold into a winery. The estate has been certified biodynamic since 2013. The vineyard is highly varied, with no fewer than 16 grape varieties vinified. The diurnal amplitude and freshness of the terroir explain why half the production is devoted to energetic, elegant whites. The reds express the same finesse, combining intense aromas with delicate, tender textures. This production and the variety of cuvées bring a wind of freshness and renewal to the Languedoc.
