"The bubbles of the Mauzac Nature, 2013 version, are as delicate and inviting as ever, a model effervescent with character." (Le Guide des Meilleurs Vins de France 2014 - RVF). Fine and elegant, it evokes nuances of herbal tea, citrus, honey and wax. This is the most traditional and oldest of the Gaillac wines. Light and refined, it's the wine for every occasion...

Expert opinion

Wine rated (2015 guide) 14.5/20 (Good wine)
About the wine:
As gourmand as ever, with aromas of apple and pear, this thirst-quenching wine is the perfect thirst-quenching wine.
RVF - La Revue du Vin de France / Guide des Meilleurs Vins de France
Wine rated (2015 guide) 16/20 (Very good wine)
Domaine rated (guide 2023) 2*Stars (These great estates, often blessed with fabulous terroirs, are must-haves which, thanks to their consistency and the excellence of their production, must be included in the cellars of discerning wine lovers).
About the wine:
The bubbles in the 2013 version of Mauzac Nature are as delicate and inviting as ever, a model of effervescent character.
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 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.
