Reflecting on the 2019 harvest

As climate change continues to disrupt growing conditions around the world, this year was no exception in the Hérault department in the south of France.

Hail in April, heatwave in June which caused drought like conditions meant that the vines had a shortage of water, this lead to a harvest that was slightly smaller than we hoped for.

Every cloud has a sliver lining however, and the quality of the juice this year was exceptional. A promising start for the 2019 harvest.

 

In August we bottled two new cuvées!

Les Amoriers 2017 – AOP Terrasses du Larzac                                                                    Les Magnarelles rouge 2018 – AOP Languedoc

       Blend : Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre                                                                                  Blend: Grenache, Carignan, Cinsault, Syrah

Soon available to buy in the UK!

 

The selected wine is:

 

Appellation: IGP Saint-Guilhem-le-Désert

Name of the wine: Les Caizergues

Denomination : Les Tisserands

Colour and type: still, white

Vintage: 2018

Appraisal: wine cited

Tasting notes: Two aromatic grapes varieties blended (viognier and sauvignon blanc) in this cuvée which has an expansive aroma of yellow fruits and citrus on the nose. A supple, long and fat palate is flattered by its volume and its mineral shades that give a fresh finish.
