Languedoc
Mas de Daumas Gassac 2022 Blanc 750 mL
Complex stone fruit and citrus open with floral lift and a clear mineral line. The palate is creamy yet fresh, combining peach, apricot and orchard fruit with restrained richness and focused acidity. Gentle honeyed and candied-fruit tones emerge through the middle without overwhelming the wine's energy. The finish is persistent and layered, returning to ripe fruit, mineral detail and a polished savoury edge.
Chateau de la Liquiere 2014 Cistus Faugeres
Ripe fruit and liquorice meet wild violet, cistus and an earthy lift on the nose. The palate is dense and richly textured, adding thyme and blond tobacco as it opens. A subtle, appetising bitterness brings shape to the finish, extending the wine with extra complexity while its underlying elegance remains firmly in view.
Gérard Bertrand 2021 Papilou Pét-Nat Rosé
Elegant pale pink, with fine, regular bubbles and a subtle raspberry aroma. Fresh red fruit carries onto a dry, rounded palate, where clean acidity gives the wine energy and definition. The finish is lively and distinctly citrus-led, keeping the berry fruit bright rather than sweet. Serve well chilled with charcuterie, grilled prawns or summer salads.
Gérard Bertrand 2022 Heritage An 77 Clairette du Languedoc
Floral aromas of white flowers and honeysuckle open into ripe peach, Williams pear and other yellow fruit, with citrus and a faint almond note. The palate is refreshing and rounded, with an unctuous mid-palate balanced by crisp acidity and a clean, savoury mineral finish. Serve well chilled with grilled Mediterranean fish, shellfish, olives or fresh cheese.
Clos Des Nines 2021 Obladie White
Highly aromatic, opening with rose petal, jasmine and ripe stone fruit over subtle garrigue and vanilla. The palate begins fresh, then broadens into a rounded, generous texture shaped by a blend of Grenache Blanc, Roussanne, Vermentino and Viognier. Mineral lift and warming spice carry the wine through a lingering, savoury finish.
Terres Falmet 2008 A Contre Courant Saint-Chinian
Deeply coloured and strikingly mature, with dried fruit, leather, fig, tobacco and candied cherry joined by flashes of raspberry, pomegranate and dried rose. Four years under a veil of yeast give the palate unusual depth and savoury complexity. Rich, muscular and earthy, with dusty tannins and a substantial, cigar-toned finish.
Mas Gabinele 2021 Carignan
Ruby-red and generously aromatic, with crushed strawberry and Ente plum joined by black pepper and liquorice. The palate has real depth and body without losing its sense of freshness, carrying the ripe red fruit and savoury spice through a long, fragrant finish. Bold enough for grilled foods, yet polished and easy to enjoy.
Mas Gabinele 2020 Faugeres
Wild berries, rockrose and rosemary open into a warm, stony mineral note. The palate is rounded and smooth, with dark fruit carried by a savoury blend of Syrah, Carignan, Mourvedre and Grenache. Schist-grown freshness keeps the generous texture composed, while herbal detail lingers through the finish. Decant briefly and serve with lamb, cassoulet or grilled sausages.
