Anne Laure Sicard est une néo-vigneronne (premières vendanges 2016) mais pas une débutante puisqu'après avoir obtenu son diplôme d'œnologue à Montpellier, elle a travaillé au Château Latour, puis a fait un tour du monde comme "winemaker" (Espagne, Australie, Canada, Uruguay, Argentine). De retour de Languedoc, on lui a proposé 9 ha de vignes situées à 450 m d'altitude à la limite septentrionale des Terrasses du Larzac (au-delà, c'est le causse). D'où le choix de ce nom, Mas Lasta (= les "dernières" vignes).

Assemblage : 45% de Grenache de 80 ans, de 40% de Syrah de 50 ans, et 15% de Cinsault de 40 ans, sur un terroir de grès et de schistes à 400m d’altitude.

Vinification/élevage : les vendanges sont manuelles en caissettes de 15kg, pour un rendement de 16hl/ha. Le raisin est égrappé et foulé. Chaque cépage est vinifié séparément. La vinification se fait en cuve inox thermo-régulée. Cuvaison de 2 à 3 semaines avec un travail doux par remontage et pigeage. Sélection de vin de « coule » uniquement sans pressurage du marc. Elevage de 10 à 11 mois 60% en cuve et 30% en barriques de 2 à 5 vins et 10% en barriques neuves. Soutirage, assemblage et mise en bouteille en phase lunaire favorable.

What is an author wine?

These 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.

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.

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.
