"Delicious"

Mauzac Roux, made entirely from the grape variety of the same name, has a lovely light yellow color and a bouquet with notes of white flowers (verbena, linden) and hints of honey. It’s beautifully lively on the palate, with notes of honey as well, accompanied by aromas of citrus zest. Delicious with a good tarte tatin!

Wine rated (2023 guide) 93/100 (2020 vintage)

Rated Estate (2023 Guide) 2*Stars (These exceptional estates, often boasting fabulous terroirs, are must-haves that, thanks to the consistency and excellence of their wines, deserve a place in the cellars of discerning wine lovers)

About the estate:

The Plageoles family has left its mark on the recent history of wine in Gaillac. Robert, followed by Bernard and Myriam—who brilliantly carried on his legacy—were pioneers in championing local grape varieties and traditional winemaking techniques. The next generation is gradually taking the reins through Bernard’s sons, Florent and Romain, who are wholeheartedly dedicated 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 wines that strive for purity, integrity, and originality.
