Languedoc
Languedoc is the workhorse of French production, making huge volume from a galaxy of varieties and styles. Roussillon is the up and comer of the region, and in general the standard has gone up as they try to distance themselves from a reputation for high volume. There are many exciting winemakers dabbling in new wine making methods and styles.
Domaine Fontan 'Maubet' Sauvignon Blanc
Pitch perfect Sauv from the South of France with bracing acidity and a cool label, serious value too.

Tacherons Limoux Chardonnay

Tacherons Limoux Chardonnay
This is an absolute stunner for the money, a Baby-Burgundy if there ever was one. Richly Chardonnic (not a word) with a good, integrated twist of oak.

Domaine Des Amiel a Coural 2021
Biodynamic. Without added sulfite, explosive and brooding but with a certain elegance, a superb wine all round.

Domaine Des Amiel Amiel Gacian
Chenin Blanc aged in amphorae, great freshness mixed with the depth and complexity that comes with the age.
€33,00
Domaine Des Amiel Amiel Quitcho Quitchous
5 grape varieties, 3 colors (Grenache Noir, Clairette Rose, Bourboulenc, Roussanne and Carignan Blanc). Wacky but not whack.

From the Limoux area, in the South, great pains are taken for this Pinot to keep its acidity and not get cooked or hot. Its fine and elegant.
