Minervois, France

Terret Gris and Blanc, Grenache Gris and Blanc

Terret Gris and Blanc, Grenache Gris and Blanc all grown on clay & limestone, and aged for six months in old oak. Fresh and lively —white flowers, sea salt and green apple skin . 

Benjamin feels that many of the wines in the Minervois AOC are too concentrated and alcoholic, and works hard to make wines that, while full flavored, are lighter, fresher, and lower in alcohol than most average wines from the Languedoc. Indeed, there is a level of liveliness in his wines that you seldom see in the wines of the region, Benjamin is  happily introducing people to the concept of Minervois “vin de soif”.
