Winemaker Sylvain Saux, whose main objective was to produce wine biodynamically, crafts the wines at Domaine Pechigo. Sylvain’s wines show represent the terroir his spirit. He actually experiments quite a lot in order to get his wines to the highest quality and ready to drink as soon as possible.

This wine is a showcase for the beautiful, but little known Mauzac grape. This grape is grown almost exclusively in the southwest of France, known as the Languedoc, more specifically Limoux. This biodynamic, dry white is extremely aromatic and ripe and round with fruit on the palate.

CoolVines Wine Geek Selection

The wine region of Languedoc is quite vast, encompassing much of the Mediterranean coastline of France, as well as reaching quite far inward. To the east, it abuts the southern Rhone and Provence regions, and the wines reflect that in their structured blends. To the west, the region divides further, with Bordeaux-influenced wines to the north, and Catalunian-influences to the south. This diversity (and relative cheapness of land) lends itself to a wine culture that is very playful. Lots of producers from other regions buy property here to experiment. In addition, there is an abundance of good, inexpensive wine that makes it to US shores from Languedoc, most with very "cheeky" names.
