"Delicious

Mauzac Roux, made from 100% of the grape variety of the same name, has an attractive light yellow color and a nose with notes of white flowers (verbena, lime blossom) and hints of honey. Lively on the palate, with notes of honey and citrus zest. Delicious with a tarte tatin!

RVF - La Revue du Vin de France / Guide des Meilleurs Vins de France

Rated wine (guide 2023) 93/100 (Vintage 2020)

Domaine rated (2023 guide) 2*Stars (These great estates, often blessed with fabulous terroirs, are must-haves which, because of their consistency and the excellence of their production, must be included in the cellars of discerning wine lovers).

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 domaine continues to produce demanding, exclusively single-vineyard wines with strong personalities. This work of the head, the heart and the hands is fully reflected in a range of cuvées aiming for purity, uprightness and originality.
