"Directly charmed by its golden color and aromatic nose".
"A beautiful straw-yellow color dresses this devilishly gourmand white, with mineral, brioche and buttery notes, ample, fat and round on the palate, with fine acidity and a good toasty woodiness in support." (Le Guide Hachette 2024)

Wine rated (guide 2024) 2*Stars (Outstanding wine)
About the wine:
A beautiful straw-yellow color dresses up this devilishly gourmand white, with mineral, brioche and buttery notes, ample, fat and round on the palate, with fine acidity and a good toasty woodiness to support it.

Domaine rated (guide 2023) 1*Star (Stars in the making or quality winemakers with a good level of production, you won't be disappointed when you taste the wines from these estates)
About the domain :
On the beautiful, high-altitude granite terraces of the Fenouillèdes region, northwest of Maury, Gérard Gauby and a few associates acquired this certified organic estate. In 2016, Wendy Wilson replaced Gerald Stanley, who had run the estate since 2008. The red and white wines are vinified in barrels on the basis of very natural principles: indigenous yeasts, no acidification, no chaptalization. Never lacking in freshness or elegance, the reds have recently gained in structure and fleshiness. But from the very first vintage, in 2001, Le Soula has distinguished itself primarily through its whites, which have impressed us with their purity and intensity: the combination of Macabeu, Sauvignon Blanc and several other grape varieties works wonders. The wines are often worth waiting for to reach their full expression.
