Rives-Blanques received some high praise from the British Languedoc wine expert, Rosemary George MW this month.
« As good as the best Bonnezeau or Coteaux du Layon », she said of our Late Harvest Chenin blanc Lagremas d’Aur. « Try detecting the difference in a blind tasting, she challenged.
The Chenin blanc, Dédicace, »long one of my favourite white wines from the Languedoc » is « elegantly mouth-filling. »
Our zero-dosage partially oak-fermented Saphir is « a Crémant to linger over ».
And our 100% Mauzac, until recently the only one in the Limoux appellation, is « delicious ».
« If Mauzac is as good as this », she said, « it certainly deserves a much better reputation ».
