Rating: RVF 17/20
“Made from the Terret grape variety, the 2011 Le Confidentiel Blanc, tasted at the estate, reveals a clean, mineral, and finely crafted wine of admirable precision: quite simply, a great white wine from the Languedoc. ” (Le Guide des Meilleurs Vins de France 2013 - RVF). A wine perfect for sharing!

Rated estate (2025 guide) 1*Star (Up-and-coming stars or quality winemakers producing wines of a high standard—you won’t be disappointed when you taste the wines from these estates)
About the estate:
After learning the trade from leading winemakers in the region, notably Olivier Jullien, Géraldine Laval established herself in 2009 on high-altitude plots in the Terrasses du Larzac, in the Poujols and Lauroux area, in the far northwest of the appellation. This small 6-hectare estate benefits from a vineyard layout composed of mature vines. A talented and passionate winemaker, Géraldine Laval expresses the purity, tension, and integrity of her terroirs with precision and sensitivity. The estate handled the 2021 vintage well and presents a very well-balanced range.
