The 2008 best French vigneron is in the Terrasses du Larzac
|
| |
During the 39th International Wine & Spirit Competition, Château Capion was awarded the prestigious trophy of best French wine producer of 2008 for its entire range. Over 350 domaines from all over France were competing for the title. Frédéric Kast, the director of the Chateau, emphasizes ‘the delight at seeing wines from the entire area recognized at their true value’. Keen to promote their wines, but also share their love of the region, the Chateau Capion team have developed a sensorial amble through the vines where visitors may experience each of the five tasting senses in the ‘wild’.

In the Terrasses du Larzac, merit does not equate with years
|
| |
Just three examples of the truth in the saying ‘value does not equate with years’ :
- Les Chemins de Carabote domaine achieved a ‘coup de coeur’ in the Guide Hachette des Vins with its first vintage. This young Domaine founded in 2005 by Nicole Michel and Jean-Yves Chaperon is an enthusiastic defender of the Terrasses du Larzac.
- - Another equally promising start for the Domaine Le Clos du Serres. Béatrice and Sébastien Fillon started making wine in 2006 and got off to a terrific start as ‘new talent’ when their Clos 2007 appeared in the Revue du Vin de France 2009 Guide to the best wines at reasonable prices. The Guide Bettane & Desseauve awarded 85/100 to their 100% Carignan from 85 year old vines.
- The Terrasses du Larzac Appellation, achieved in 2004, was the culmination of long and hard collective work which continues as the producers continue to promote their terroir with a dynamism that attracts ever more talent to the area.
