Tucked into the sun-soaked hills of the Languedoc, this small family estate works its limestone and schist slopes with real care, favouring low yields and hand-picked fruit. The 2023 vintage gives you a white that's fresh and bright, with citrus zest, white peach and a touch of garrigue herbs lifting the nose. Gentle pressing and a cool fermentation keep everything crisp and pure, while a short time on fine lees adds a lovely rounded texture. Pour it chilled alongside grilled fish, goat's cheese or a simple summer salad — or just enjoy a glass on its own.

# A Languedoc Red With Real Character Grown on sun-drenched slopes where garrigue scents drift through the vines, this 2023 red comes from a small family estate working with care and patience. The soils — stony, poor and perfectly suited to low yields — give the grapes real concentration. Expect dark fruit, a touch of pepper and that warm southern herbal note you only find here. Vinification stays gentle and honest, letting the terroir speak rather than the cellar. Supple tannins make it easy to enjoy now, alongside grilled lamb, ratatouille or a simple cheese board. Great value from a producer well worth discovering.
