  Wines Languedoc-Roussillon
Mauzac is difficult to vinify because it oxidises easily, and has the high acidity ideal for champenisation.
By encouraging the mauzac on our lowest south-facing slopes to reach an unusual level of maturity, we were able to produce this unique still wine, which was included by La Revue du Vin de France in its roundup of the best wines of the 2002 and the 2003 millésimes in France.
Half a hectare of mauzac, harvested on November 27, produced only two barrels of this wine which will be released in the course of 2005.

We produce two different award-winning Chenin blanc wines: one is a dry wine vinified in oak (Dédicace), and the other is sweet dessert wine (Vendange d'Automne) made from botrytised grapes.
Mauzac is a grape of the Renaissance, referred to in Antiquamareto's Livre de Raison of 1525, but although once widespread, it is grown today only in two places in the world: Limoux and Gaillac.
We produce two award-winning mauzac wines: one is Blanquette de Limoux, the world's oldest and original sparkling wine, and the other is a still wine, vinified in oak (Cuvée Occitania).

The grapes are snap-frost mauzac blanc from the Gaillac region, and hand-tended ugni blanc from Cognac.
Mauzac is Gaillac¹s oldest grape variety, dating back to the Roman times, and is used in a wide variety of wines depending on when it is picked.
For winemaking, Mauzac is blended with Loin de l¹Oeil (Len de l¹El in the local dialect) to add finesse and style.

The wine (is called) Blanquette de Limoux; Blanquette coming not from the colour of the wine but from the white film that covers the underside of the leaves of the mauzac grape.

The secret lies in the Mauzac grape, which makes up a minimum of 90 per cent of the wine and gives it its striking green-apple skin flavour - the balance is made up of Chardonnay and Chenin Blanc.The méthode traditionelle is used to create the sparkle.
