1*Étoile
Hachette
"Abundant tears and a youthful purplish hue announce a very sunny nose marked by candied fruit and cherries in alcohol. Equally warm on the attack, the palate is imposing with its generosity, candied flavors and spicy, mentholated finish that gives a welcome sensation of freshness. It couldn't be more Southern. (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2020) Great amplitude!

Expert opinion
Bettane & Desseauve
Domain rated 1*Star (A serious, commendable production, in keeping with what one has the right to expect from its appellation(s))
About the domain :
In 2004, Pascal Glas decided to take over the family vineyards after more than twenty years of winemaking in cooperative wineries in the south of France. Situated on the north-western edge of the Costières de Nîmes appellation, he makes straightforward, honest wines with exemplary balance and purity of fruit. The wines are thirst-quenching, with great depth of fruit, without ever being overdone.

About the domain :
Pascal Glas and his wife Élisabeth took over the family estate in 2004 after the closure of the Sernhac cooperative. Today, they manage a 45-hectare vineyard, producing costières-de-nîmes wines regularly featured in these pages, as well as an IGP. HVE certified since 2014, the estate is currently undergoing organic conversion.
