The 2010 vintage was rated: RVF 14.5/20
Terre d'Argence white is a full-bodied and generous wine with great complexity. The palate is powerful yet exudes a lovely smoothness , with notes of apricot, verbena, and violet. Best enjoyed over the next 3 years...

Rated estate Award-winning wines (This producer's wines are regularly recognized by the guide)

About the estate:

François Collard is a regular in the Guide, with his wines often ranking highly. Established in 1994, he began bottling wines from the family vineyards (65 hectares certified organic since 2014) under two labels: Mourgues du Grès, which belonged to the Ursuline convent of Beaucaire until the Revolution, and La Tour de Béraud, named after a 14th-century watchtower Never short on ideas, the Collard couple invites visitors to explore every facet of the estate via a marked trail equipped with Bluetooth markers.
