Jean-Louis Denois
After an experience steeped in Champagne-style winemaking, Jean-Louis Denois identified favorable conditions for growing Pinot Noir and Chardonnay on certain hillsides of Languedoc. Altitude, exposure, and soil type provide an environment conducive to the expression of these grape varieties, rarely associated with the region.
The winemaking process favors a measured approach, focused on freshness and aromatic precision rather than the pursuit of power. The white wines retain a marked tension, supported by discreet mineral expressions, while the reds are built on gentle extractions, resulting in fine and well-integrated tannins.
The winemaking process remains restrained and tailored to each vintage, with the aim of complementing the wine without influencing its character. The result is a balanced and coherent expression of these Languedoc terroirs, emphasizing precision and clarity rather than a demonstrative interpretation.
