A real Favorite for this cuvée full of fruit and charm, but not only! Notes of black fruit, truffle, prune, cedar and blueberry, a full-bodied palate, good acidity and fine tannins make this a universal wine that will appeal to everyone. Irresistible!

About the domain :

Liz Williamson is from New Zealand and Robin is from England. In 2004, they chose the flinty Jurassic limestone terroir of the Murviel-lès-Montpellier hills, in a site close to Roman ruins and offering stunning views of the Mediterranean, to create their estate: 13 hectares farmed organically.

Domaine noté (guide 2021) Sélectionné (We remind you that this guide is a prize list and as such, all the estates that appear in it, even without a star, represent, in our eyes, the excellence of French production).

About the domain :

Robin Williamson is English, Liz New Zealand. It was in 2004 that they found this estate in the Grès de Montpellier region to begin their new life as winemakers. The estate was soon certified organic, and the diversity of its cuvées - bubbles, whites and reds - is truly delightful! They have increased the size of the estate from 6.5 hectares when they set up, to 14 hectares today. We're delighted to welcome them here.
