Rated estate (2012 guide): 3*Stars (Very high-quality production)

About the estate:

“Luc Baudet had the audacity to settle in this region, which is still strongly influenced by the cooperative. Deeply attached to the Costières de Nîmes, he made his home at Mas Neuf. The richness of the terroirs allows him to offer three types of wine: Rhône Paradox, highlighting the freshness and purity of the fruit; Compostelle, the result of careful selection from old vines, as well as grapes from the best plots; and finally Armonio, born from a collaboration with Louis Mitjavile (of Tertre Roteboeuf in Saint-Émilion, among others).”
