The wine
A majority of Grenache grapes, and an additional complement of Carignan, lend this ruby-red wine a silky, slightly rich fleshiness. Cultivated according to organic principles, they are vinified in whole bunches and fermented with native yeasts in concrete tanks. The wine is matured in foudre tuns for 18 months.
About the Producer Clos Maia
Having learned her craft with Olivier Leflaive in 2003 in Puligny–Montrachet and then Julien Zernott, a regionally recognised figure from the Domaine du Pas de l'Escalette, Géraldine Laval set up her base on the Terrasses du Larzac in 2009, grouping together several hevtares of Grenache.
She carefully maintains her six-hectare vineyard without chemical treatments, intending to obtain organic certification. The same is true in the cellars, where she conducts vinification with as little intervention as possible. In her vineyards, she grows Grenache as well as a real range of other grape varieties: Terret, Syrah, Grenache Noir, Roussanne, Terret-Bourret, Grenache Gris and Chenin Blanc.
Her hard work results in highly refined wines which reflect their terroir, consisting of Languedoc grape varieties and limestone-clay soils.
