2024 Saint-Chinian Blanc
Mas Champart
The south of France may be known primarily for its reds and rosés, but it is home to distinctive and outstanding white wines, too. Made from a medley of southern white grape varieties, Mas Champart’s Saint-Chinian blanc is one of the region’s most fascinating and delicious blancs. Mineral and saline, with impressive texture and flavors of citrus, stone fruit, and spring flowers, this offers a great pairing for grilled fish or seared scallops.

2023 Saint-Chinian Rouge “Clos de la Simonette”
France | Languedoc-Roussillon
Decades ago, Isabelle and Matthieu planted Mourvèdre on southeast-facing terraces, using cuttings from exceptional Bandol vineyards, forming them into stumpy, gobelet-trained vines. Today, Noémie treats them with the reverence they deserve and crafts a robust, soulful, and exquisite rouge with notes of dark fruit, spice, and leather.

Cool it down, decant it in any kind of vase you have handy, and serve it the next time you fire up your grill.

About The Producer
Mas Champart
About The Region
Languedoc-Roussillon
Ask wine drinkers around the world, and the word “Languedoc” is sure to elicit mixed reactions. On the one hand, the region is still strongly tied to its past as a producer of cheap, insipid bulk wine in the eyes of many consumers. On the other hand, it is the source of countless great values providing affordable everyday pleasure, with an increasing number of higher-end wines capable of rivaling the best from other parts of France.
While there’s no denying the Languedoc’s checkered history, the last two decades have seen a noticeable shift to fine wine, with an emphasis on terroir. Ambitious growers have sought out vineyard sites with poor, well draining soils in hilly zones, curbed back on irrigation and the use of synthetic fertilizers and pesticides, and looked to balance traditional production methods with technological advancements to craft wines with elegance, balance, and a clear sense of place. Today, the overall quality and variety of wines being made in the Languedoc is as high as ever.
Shaped like a crescent hugging the Mediterranean coast, the region boasts an enormous variety of soil types and microclimates depending on elevation, exposition, and relative distance from the coastline and the cooler foothills farther inland. While the warm Mediterranean climate is conducive to the production of reds, there are world-class whites and rosés to be found as well, along with stunning dessert wines revered by connoisseurs for centuries.

When buying red Burgundy, I think we should remember:
1. Big wines do not age better than light wine.
2. A so-called great vintage at the outset does not guarantee a great vintage for the duration.
3. A so-called off vintage at the outset does not mean the wines do not have a brilliant future ahead of them.
4. Red Burgundy should not taste like Guigal Côte-Rôtie, even if most wine writers wish it would.
5. Don’t follow leaders; watch yer parking meters.
