Commentaire de dégustation : Les vieux cépages blancs sont mis à l'honneur. Terret, piquepoul gris et carignan blanc séduisent avec leurs notes florales subtiles, une belle persistance de fruits blancs et une bouche bien ciselée et portée par les fins amers en finale ! Dans ce millésime chaud et sec, Nicole et John Bojanowski nous prouvent l'efficacité de la causse blanche et aride de Saint-Jean-de-Minervois pour équilibrer les vins.
Le mot du domaine :
"Nouvelle cuvée pour parler de l’histoire du Languedoc. En effet, il y a plus de deux siècles, les vins étaient fait avec principalement ces deux cépages autochtones, le terret et le piquepoul. On pouvait les trouver dans les trois couleurs, les vins rouges étaient plutôt des clairets avec des bouquets très raffinés. Pour notre vin Retour aux Origines, c’est un assemblage de piquepoul gris (jeune plantation de 7 ans dont les bois viennent d’un conservatoire de cépages patrimoniaux dans le Minervois), de terret gris (vieilles vignes de plus de 60 ans) et de carignan blanc qui demeure une rareté dans le Minervois. Fin bouquet floral associé à des arômes de fruits blancs."

What is an author wine?
This can be so diverse depending on the personality of their sire, that it is easier to define what it is not. An author wine is anything but a standard, stereotypical wine, made to please as many people as possible. It is therefore rarely produced in millions of copies, copying itself from vintage in vintage.
An author wine is therefore a wine that does not look like that of the neighbor. Which from year to year will evolve according to the vagaries of the weather and the mood of the author - the two that can be linked. Because the author does not rely on market studies to carry out his boat. He makes his wine as he feels, as he likes, as he can, sometimes ... and too bad if he does not please everyone.
This is why author wines are sometimes classified as "table wine" or "France wine". Because the winemaker did not plan the authorized grape variety*, makes the assembly or vinification recommended in the name **. He is often a bit rebellious, our author. But that is why we like it! ... That said, author's wines are not systematically marginal: they are present in most of the appellations, and can be part of the elite of these this***. Because they are not content to have personality: they are good, in addition! With in general aDegree of TorchabilityVery high: we never tire of it at the end of the first sip.
As author's wines are not chaptalized, levied, hacked ... They can have very different profiles depending on the vintage. It is up to us (resellers and consumers) to accept them as they are, and to remain faithful to the producers, because they need us to continue their activity.
