Expert opinion
Bettane & Desseauve
Wine rated (guide 2024) 92/100
Domaine rated (guide 2024) 2*Stars (A serious and recommendable production, but a little more regular and homogeneous than the previous one)
About the domain :
Isabelle and Mathieu Champart created their domaine from scratch in 1976, and have made it their signature, because year after year, it's always excellent. The apparent simplicity of these wines was matched only by the length and complexity of their finishes. The estate has now changed hands, with Pascaline Bour, related to the Mulliez family, taking it over. We await the wines produced by the new team, and hope they will continue an incredible series of great successes in an appellation that curiously suffers from a lack of notoriety.
Guide Hachette des vins
Domaine noté (guide 2024) Award-winning wines (The wines of this producer are regularly awarded by the guide)
About the domain :
A magnificent landscape, terraced vineyards, a hillside farmhouse and a very stony, clay-limestone terroir. Since 1976, Isabelle and Matthieu Champart have cultivated 13 hectares of vines in this picture-postcard setting (80% of which are organic) with an organic sensibility that predates the official conversion begun in 2019, which they have been vinifying since 1988, the year they left the cooperative.

Rated wine (guide 2024 ) 91/100
Domaine rated (guide 2024) 1*Star (Stars in the making or quality winegrowers with a good level of production, you won't be disappointed when you taste the wines from these estates)
About the wine:
Côte d'Arbo offers more roundness, in a powerful, racy style.
About the domain :
Fans of the Champart couple, both recently retired, can rest assured that the estate is still going strong, in the tradition of its founders! Nicolas Gaignon continues to bring to life these fine cuvées screwed onto a clay-limestone bedrock. The 16-hectare estate, situated on the limestone folds overlooking the town of Saint-Chinian, began its conversion to organic farming in 2019. Here, the wines are as much dedicated to immediate pleasure as to great ageing potential.
James Suckling
Rated wine (guide 2022) 89/100
About the wine:
Elegant, fruity nose of black cherries, baking spices and dried thyme. Medium-bodied with creamy tannins on the palate, revealing spicy plums and elegant cherries. Quite drinkable, but a little more depth on the midpalate would lift it to a higher level. Drink now.

Dark color, opulent fruit on the nose and a spicy touch on the palate. The whole remains closed and needs to be reviewed!

Note and review by M. GILLES D. Published on 05/11/2023
A fine traditional Saint-Chinian, distinguished in a radiant vintage. Full-bodied, broad and fearsomely gourmand on the palate, underscored by an ideal hint of minerality. Smooth and velvety, with a core of concentrated red fruit, accompanied by fine spices and delicate smoky notes. Powerful, fine, lush tannins that retain a lovely freshness and carry through to the persistent, equally perfumed finish, with a hint of licorice. Well-balanced, very well made at a modest price of around €13. To our great delight, this cuvée, which will continue to blossom for many years to come, was enjoyed with skewers of barded Lozère lamb offal, marinated in herbs from the garrigue and cooked in a bbq, accompanied by a harissa sauce and cherry tomatoes preserved in garlic. Score = 4.1.
