AOC Limoux
90% Chardonnay, 10% Chenin Blanc

“La Coume Lumet” is an Occitan phrase meaning “Valley of Light,” a fitting descriptor for this dazzling, Chardonnay-dominant blend kissed by the crispness of Chenin Blanc. Aromas of pear and roasted almond caress the nose. The rich mouthfeel melts into a finish of buttery, toasted notes. The vineyards are maintained using sustainable, responsible viticulture and Terra Vitis certified.

AOP Saint Chinian
30% Syrah, 25% Grenache, 25% Mourvèdre, 20% Carignan

Initiale is a classic Saint-Chinian blend — Syrah imparts spiciness and black pepper; Grenache Noir bestows soft fruit; Carignan expresses a rustic leather tone; and Mourvèdre offers warm hints of tobacco and chocolate. Aromas of blackberry and cherry jam are laced with toasted bread and pepper. A tender, joyful palate carries a trace of tannin, enhancing the finish.

AOP Languedoc
75% Syrah, 16% Mourvèdre, 9% Grenache

This Syrah-dominant blend is velvety, yet fresh and offers an entrancing perfume of violet, bergamot, and cherry.

Resolves with wafts of balsamic and iris flower and a surprise note of brioche. The vineyards are maintained using responsible viticulture and are Terra Vitis certified. Made by the award-winning winemaker Diane Losfelt.

Vin de France
100% Carignan Gris

This rare Carignan Gris varietal is a gift of golden flavors: fresh pear, chamomile, and quince.  A white wine with a dynamic personality, this organic cuvée expresses both bright, crisp notes and herbal smokiness. Because of the rarity of Carignan Gris, the domaine produced only 800 bottles of this wine. We are thrilled to be able to offer it to wine lovers in the US.

AOP Languedoc
70% Grenache blanc, 15% Carignan Blanc, 15% Roussanne

L'Égrisee brings refinement and delicious freshness without excessive exuberance, a touch of class that perhaps explains the meaning of its name, “diamond dust.” This all-occasion white is balanced yet lively with aromas of white fruit, flowers, fennel, and almond.

AOC Coteaux du Languedoc Pézenas

75% Syrah, 25% Cinsaut

This blend is, in a word, stunning.  Christine Mouton Bertoli is a gifted winemaker.  Her wines are as wonderful and feminine as she is.  This flagship wine has flavors of ripe cherries and mocha balanced with good herbal aromas and good acidity to keep your tastebuds alive and interested.  Think of lamb chops with spiced prunes, or Moroccan chicken.
