Taken from tradition by Maison Plageoles, this wine is one of the great families of white wines such as sherry or vin jaune du Jura. Aged in barrels for 7 years without topping up, it is the quintessence of the Mauzac grape. A rare and original cuvée!

About the domain :

The Plageoles family has left its mark on the recent history of wine in Gaillac. Robert, then Bernard and Myriam, who brilliantly took over from him, were pioneers in the defense of local grape varieties and ancestral winemaking techniques. Bernard's sons, Florent and Romain, are gradually taking over, defending the twelve varieties grown in their vineyards, including the delicious prunelart, the extremely rare verdanel and the mauzac quartet (green, red, pink and black). Away from fashion and the beaten track, the estate continues to produce wines with strong personalities, exclusively from a single grape variety. This work of the head, the heart and the hands is fully reflected in a range of cuvées aiming for purity, uprightness and originality.
