"Three stars, one Favorite and a very good deal for this Minervois dominated by Grenache Noir. Discreet yet distinctive, the nose delivers warm aromas of ripe red fruit against a background of garrigue, Zan and pepper. Surprisingly fresh on the attack, set against silky tannins, the palate delivers a round, soft flesh, without excess, which lingers for a long time on this sunny fruit, very Languedoc. Already in full bloom, nothing protrudes except pleasure" (Le Guide Hachette 2025)

About the wine:
Three stars, one Favorite and a very good deal for this Minervois dominated by Grenache Noir. Discreet yet distinctive, the nose delivers warm aromas of ripe red fruit against a background of garrigue, Zan and pepper. Surprisingly fresh on the attack, set against silky tannins, the palate delivers a round, soft flesh, without excess, which lingers for a long time on this sunny fruit, very Languedoc. Already blossoming, nothing protrudes except pleasure!
About the domain :
René-Henry Guéry represents the eighth generation of a winegrowing family with deep roots in Azille, in the Minervois region. With his wife Florence, who comes from the Lot region, another land of vines, he has been running this 40-hectare estate since 1998, and will be adding a new barrel cellar in 2022. The 15 ha planted with white grape varieties are now farmed organically.
