About the wine:
Aromas of toasted hazelnut and curry; a clean, full-bodied, straightforward, and lively attack; beautiful complexity; notes of mild curry, saffron, and fresh walnuts; a lovely, spicy finish with notes of toasted hazelnut.
About the estate:
The Plageoles family has left an indelible mark on the recent history of wine in Gaillac. Robert, followed by Bernard and Myriam—who brilliantly took over the reins—were pioneers in championing local grape varieties and traditional winemaking techniques. The next generation is gradually taking over, led by Bernard’s sons, Florent and Romain, who devote themselves body and soul to the twelve varieties in their vineyard, including the delicious Prunelart, the extremely rare Verdanel, and the quartet of Mauzac (green, red, pink, and black). Unconcerned with trends and off the beaten path, the estate continues to produce, with the utmost care, exclusively single-varietal wines endowed with strong personalities. This work of the mind, heart, and hands is fully reflected in a range of cuvées that aim for purity, integrity, and originality.

Review by Mr. FABIEN Q. Published on May 1, 2021
It's no match for a vin jaune in terms of complexity.

Review and comment by Mr. DIDIER P. Published on May 15, 2020
Lighter in color than a vin jaune, with a delicate nose and a very subtle hint of curry. On the palate, it has the classic profile of an oxidative wine: straightforward and fairly simple. It’s closer to a manzanilla sherry than a vin jaune, which has a significantly more complex palate. Perfect as an aperitif.

Exceptional, with notes of walnut and curry—a great wine worthy of a Château Chalon!
