This is a class act headed by Basile St Germain who was a mid life convert to wine production and started his vinous life working in Bordeaux and Château Latour. He decided to come to the Languedoc and produce a fine wine of his own, wines of finesse. He carefully selected his 12.5 hectares on terroir similar to that of the graves in Bordeaux. It is a refreshing change to see a top quality producer refraining from using wood with the vinification of reds and indeed it is only Basile’s white which is vinified in barriques. Very much a rising star, Basile’s philosophy is to strive for perfection working closely with nature using organic methods. His wines are the epitome of elegance and purity.
