About wine:
Odile's smile is more roasted, more fleshy. The underlying freshness of 2021 suits her well.
About the estate:
In 1998, Roger Mézy replanted 3.5 hectares of vines on the beautiful terroir of the commune of Triadou for his son Frédéric, then a physics and chemistry student with a passion for vines and wine. Frédéric took over the estate, soon joined by his wife Pauline. After various acquisitions, including some old plots, the estate now covers 58 hectares, spread across different areas of the Pic-Saint-Loup appellation and cultivated using biodynamic practices since 2007. The geological variations, limestone scree, marl, and rounded pebbles allow for a variety of blends. The pronounced woodiness and heavy extraction of the early days are now a thing of the past. Today, the wines are much more balanced, easy to drink and more refined.
