In this charming vintage, the Cinsault is vinified on its own and macerated for 8 weeks. A charming wine with a superb, generous nose of stewed black fruits. The palate is smooth and full-bodied, with silky, delicate tannins; the mellow fruit blends seamlessly with the wine’s soft alcohol. A wine of great elegance that will delight those who seek exquisite sensory experiences!

About the estate:
This unique estate, located in the picturesque setting of the Causse de Siran, is run by Cécile Boyer-Domergue, who is always assisted by her mother, Patricia. Their wines are the result of work carried out with exemplary integrity, focused on the cultivation of rare or forgotten grape varieties. The fruit on the nose always has a slightly candied character, while on the palate the wines display rare elegance and great finesse of texture, particularly the pure Cinsaults. The top vintages are sold only when they reach their peak. The estate produces a lovely dry white made from forgotten varieties—Araignan Blanc, Riveyrenc Blanc, and Riveyrenc Gris—as well as a passeri-style wine, Erme, in the spirit of the “noble wines” once produced in the Minervois. We must commend the uniqueness and strength of this approach—both winemaking and heritage-focused—which serves as a key point of reference, not only for the Minervois but for the entire Languedoc region.
