It speaks to collectors as well as hosts who perfect every detail of their table, to those seeking a clear, unadorned emotion and the extra soul that a great wine brings. In this 2024 vintage, the framework is drawn with uprightness and grace, for a sensory experience defined by balance, depth and a calm intensity.

Assemblage et vinification

The making of this cuvée follows a clear guiding line: patient, meticulous work where every step enhances the raw material. The parcels are considered individual voices within a choir, then brought together to form a coherent harmony. Harvesting receives constant attention, sorting is meticulous, and vinification prioritises precision, delicate extraction and aromatic clarity. The ageing, conducted with restraint, aims to preserve the wine's energy and uprightness while polishing the texture to achieve a clean, caressing mouthfeel. Nothing is left to chance, from selection to bottling, to deliver a chiselled, luminous profile perfectly aligned with its line. You hold here a consummate interpretation of a great Languedoc-Cabrières wine, faithful to its origin and resolutely focused on flavour expression.

Notes de dégustation

• Appearance : Crystal-bright sheen, luminous highlights and visual purity, announcing controlled material and a refined presence in the glass.
• Nose : A precise bouquet where ripe fruit with delicate accents, airy floral nuances and a subtle mineral thread intertwine to provide structure and definition.
• Palate : A direct attack, a silky texture that gains breadth, a mid-palate tightened by a savoury freshness, and an extended finish with clear, luminous persistence.

Température de service et conseils

To reveal the full aromatic finesse and precision of the vintage, serve in generous tasting glasses, allowing the wine time to open up in the air. Measured aeration lets it unfold its nuances and texture naturally. Avoid extreme temperatures that lock or unbalance the expression. Prefer a gentle, unhurried service, presenting the bottle at the table so the experience can settle progressively, from the first inhale to the final echo on the palate.

Accords mets et vin

• Refined aperitif: delicate bites, iodised notes, light textures that highlight the wine's purity.
• Noble fish and shellfish: precise cooking, light sauces, fresh herbs and short jus.
• Contemporary plant-based cuisine: seasonal vegetables, citrus, infused oils and precise condiments.
• Characterful poultry: juicy meat, golden skin, reduced jus that dialogues with the wine's depth.
• Lightly sweet desserts: fresh fruits, almond notes, airy textures that prolong the sense of clarity.
