spring

This new vintage from the estate, aged for 9 months in oak barrels, reveals a Chardonnay with floral notes subtly blended with hints of vanilla. The palate is vibrant, with a mineral freshness and lovely fruitiness at its core. A cheerful, well-balanced wine that’s a pleasure to open as an aperitif or to pair with poultry!

Rated estate (2020 guide): 2*Stars (A solid, recommendable wine, though slightly more consistent and uniform than the previous vintage)

About the estate:

Julia Hubrich and Julien Gil are two passionate young winemakers who have been based for less than ten years on a rocky plateau just outside the Limoux appellation. They cultivate and produce wine from their nine hectares in the most natural way possible: “It’s not the cellar that improves the wine, but the work of the winemaker in the vineyard.” One cannot help but admire the progress and consistency of all the estate’s wines, which have become a must-try.

Hachette Wine Guide

Guide Hachette des vins

Rated Estate (2021 Guide) Award-Winning Wines (This producer's wines regularly receive awards from the guide)

About the estate:

Two young winemakers and a young winery, established in 2006. Originally from Dresden, Julia trained in Montpellier and the Bordeaux region. As for Julien, a native of southern France who has been passionate about cooking and wine since his teenage years, he took a detour through the Médoc to learn the trade. The couple began by “saving” 2 hectares of old Carignan vines that were slated for uprooting, then acquired vineyards in the Limoux AOC. In total, they now have 10 hectares.

Is it possible to It's surprising, since the wine is a little bitter. But you get used to it as you drink through the bottle.
