"A local wine that's easy to drink!"

"The new vintage presents itself as an easy-drinking Mansois, free from harsh tannins, supple, liberated, and juicy; one of those wines that you open on a whim but which reminds you of its origins in a sharp vintage." (Le Guide RVF 2023)

About wine:

The new vintage presents itself as an easy-drinking Mansois, free from harsh tannins, supple, liberated, and juicy; one of those wines that you open on a whim but which reminds you of its origins in a sharp vintage.

About the estate:

Jean-Luc Matha's methods are organic because the winemaker likes wines that roll their "r"s. Close to the fruit and their particular terroir of rougier—the red, iron-rich, quasi-mountainous soils of Marcillac—the vines planted on terraces offer ideal ripeness. All the vintages are destemmed because Jean-Luc Matha does not like the taste of "pepper." With hindsight, it is clear that the Servadou grape (also known as Mansois or Braucol) in the hands of this winemaker needs time, and that it is necessary to know how to tame the different vintages.
