About the estate:
Coming from a long line of winemakers, Jacques Bilhac—joined in 2003 by his brother Alex—oversees 30 hectares of vineyards, most of whose grapes he supplies to the cooperative winery. In 2014, the brothers built their own winery and withdrew 7 hectares from the cooperative to produce their own wines.

Review by Mr. ADRIEN M. Posted on 11/06/2025
A classic Languedoc wine dominated by Syrah, with a unique fresh and slightly smoky character that lends it a certain intensity and makes it very easy to drink.

Review by Mr. Gilles D. Published on September 24, 2025
Discover this striking Languedoc wine, bursting with incredible energy and finely textured by tight tannins that frame a core of intense red fruit, tinged with subtle notes of smoke and licorice. A pleasant freshness enhances the length of the finish. Very easy to drink despite its 14% ABV, it pairs beautifully with grilled aligot and sausage from the Aveyron region. Rating = 4.
