(2015 Vintage Notes)
This fairly complex Pays d'Oc wine reveals great elegance and liveliness. The Terret, combined with the more lively Grenache Gris, creates a balance on the palate between creaminess and mineral freshness. A true delight!

Bettane & Desseauve

Rated estate (2024 guide): 2*Stars (A solid, recommendable production, though slightly more consistent and uniform than the previous one)

About the estate:

Isabelle and Mathieu Champart built their estate from the ground up in 1976 and turned it into a hallmark of quality, as year after year, everything there remains excellent. The apparent simplicity of these under-the-radar wines was matched only by the length and complexity of their finishes. The estate has changed hands; Pascaline Bour, a relative of the Mulliez family, has taken it over. We look forward to the wines produced by the new team and hope they will continue an incredible string of great successes in an appellation that, curiously, suffers from a lack of recognition.

Rated Estate (2024 Guide) Award-Winning Wines (This producer's wines regularly receive awards from the guide)

About the estate:

A magnificent landscape, terraced vineyards, a farmhouse on the hillside, and a very stony, clay-limestone terroir. Since 1976, Isabelle and Matthieu Champart have been cultivating 13 hectares of vineyards (80% of which are organic) in this picture-perfect setting, adopting organic practices long before their official conversion began in 2019. They have been making wine here since 1988, the year they left the cooperative.

Wine rated (2018 guide) 15.5/20 (2015 vintage) (Good wine)

Rated Estate (2024 Guide) 1*Star (Up-and-coming stars or high-quality winemakers producing wines of a good standard—you won’t be disappointed when you taste the wines from these estates)

About the estate:

Fans of the Champart couple—both recently retired—can rest assured: the estate remains in top form, true to the spirit of its founders! Nicolas Gaignon continues to bring these beautiful vintages—rooted in clay-limestone soil—to life. The 16-hectare estate, situated on the limestone folds overlooking the town of Saint-Chinian, began its transition to organic farming in 2019. Here, the wines are designed for both immediate enjoyment and long-term aging.

Pleasant on the nose but slightly unbalanced on the palate due to its high alcohol content (serve it a little colder?).

Wine does not match the description: high alcohol content with a dominant bitterness. Disappointing.
