Languedoc-Roussillon

Secondly, there are wines for every budget; at every level we believe these wines continue to offer terrific...

L'Estabel, Languedoc Blanc, Grand Cuvee Comtesse, 2022

"Gold medal Paris 2023. Blend of Clairette, Grenache Blanc, Rolle and Bourboulenc from Cabrières schist, bottled in an unusual dark flute.
Really mineral, intriguing nose. There’s something quite like a dry Riesling about the build of this super-refreshing wine with its excellent natural acidity and mineral elements. Slightly underripe greengage fruit. Amazing value! VVGV 17/20", Jancis Robinson MW, jancisrobinson.com, 11th May 2023

A blend of Grenache Blanc and Clairette with a little Bourbolenc. White flowers, grapefruit and lime. Refreshing and lightly aromatic. Now-2024

L’Estabel is a small co-operative in the hills of Cabrieres, choosing to carry on bottling this wine in the flute-shaped bottle traditionally used here. As with neighbouring Faugères, the soils here are schist-based, although at Estabel they  say they are better for vines as the local schist is slightly less acid and more neutral.

Great choice of good-value wines in the January sales. The website is really easy to use to make up an order. Delivery, as is often the case, was within 24 hours and, as usual, was well-packed.
