“A wine that reflects its terroir and is easy to drink!”

“The new vintage is an approachable Mansois, stripped of its harshness thanks to supple, open, and juicy tannins; one of those wines you’d open on a whim, yet which still evokes its origins in a distinctive vintage.” (Le Guide RVF 2023)

Wine rated (2023 guide) 89/100

Rated estate (2024 guide) 1*Star (Up-and-coming stars or quality winemakers producing wines of a high standard—you won’t be disappointed when tasting the wines from these estates)

About the wine:

The new vintage is an approachable Mansois, stripped of its harshness thanks to soft, open, and juicy tannins; it’s the kind of wine you’d open on a whim, yet one that still evokes its origins in a distinctive vintage.

About the estate:

Jean-Luc Matha’s methods are organic because the winemaker loves wines with a rich, rounded character. True to the fruit and their unique Rougier terroir—those iron-rich, almost mountainous red soils of Marcillac—the vines planted on terraces achieve ideal ripeness. All the vintages are destemmed because Jean-Luc Matha doesn’t like the “pepper” taste. Looking back, it’s clear that the Servadou grape (also known as Mansois or Braucol) in this winemaker’s hands needs time, and that one must know how to coax the different vintages.
