Tenth anniversary of the Mas Haut Buis and Domaine Des Grecaux
10 Portraits for 10 Years
The outsider of Languedoc
Year after year, Olivier Jeantet has been seeking to create lively wines marked by freshness and finesse, balance and elegance, and expressing faithfully their terroir. Made from old Grenache and Carignan, Costa Caoude immediately imposes itself by its originality, deep fruit and delicate texture. It can be drunk young – ideally after decantation – but will age very well. The red cuvée Les Carlines is entirely vinified in whole bunches of Syrah and Grenache, with some Carignan as well. It is simpler than Costa Caoude but structured, fruity and tense, ready to drink young but with evident ageing potential. The white Les Agrunelles (Roussanne, Grenache blanc and Grenache gris) is vinified and aged in barrels, which gives it minerality and savour. The white cuvée Les Carlines (100% Chardonnay) is vinified in vats and today constitutes a fresh and easy-to-drink entry-level.
