Château de Lancyre - Languedoc D'ombre et de Lumière blanc 2023
2*Étoiles
Hachette
"Complex and proudly Languedoc".
"Shade for cool nights, light for hot days, a contrast that suits this vigorous white born of Roussanne (80%). We love the brightness of its nose of quince, exotic fruit and white flowers, and the volume of its equally expressive palate, which is round and invigorating, with a bitterness that nicely stretches the fruit on the finish. (Le Guide Hachette 2025).

Bettane & Desseauve
Domaine rated (guide 2025) 2*Stars (A serious and recommendable production, but a little more regular and homogeneous than the previous one)
About the domain :
After Bernard Durand, who accompanied the Pic Saint-Loup's conversion from sheep-dominated polyculture to its recognition as a quality wine-growing zone, Régis Valentin, his nephew, has taken over the technical reins. Without fanfare, this is an estate to seek out for its powerful yet tasty Cuvée Vieilles Vignes, its Clos des Combes and its Grande Cuvée. The Cuvée Madame is even more ambitious, and the rosé is consistently delicious.

Complex and proudly Languedoc.
About the domain :
Régis Valentin, oenologist and cellar master, took over the estate created in 1960 by the Durand-Valentin families in 2001. He produces wines from 80 ha of vines (in organic conversion since 2019) occupying a beautiful terroir of hard limestone and red clay. A sure bet in the Languedoc.
