Winery rated 2 stars (A serious and recommendable production, but a little more consistent and uniform than the previous one)
About the estate:
Château de Cazeneuve is an old building dating back to the 9th century. The vineyards, which fell into disuse at the beginning of the 20th century, were taken over by André Leenhardt, who cultivates 25 hectares in the Pic Saint-Loup area. André produces some lovely white wines. The good news is that the small 2017 Les Calcaires cuvée heralds a shift towards wines that are dense, energetic, and refined. This highly successful wine perfectly expresses the minerality that this type of soil brings to the classic Languedoc grape varieties. We were very impressed.

About the estate:
The Château de Cazeneuve, an old 9th-century building, stands at the heart of the estate purchased by André Leenhardt in 1988 after completing his studies in agronomy. Replanting, leaving the cooperative, converting to organic farming (certified in 2010): André Leenhardt is now one of the iconic winemakers of Pic Saint-Loup, at the head of a beautiful 35-hectare vineyard on clay-limestone soil.
