Beautiful bright, straw-yellow colour with silver highlights. On the nose the Grenache Blanc and Macabeu express themselves with aromas of fresh pineapple, aniseed and fennel then honeysuckle and brioche come through with a slight toasted nuance. The palate immediately reminds us of the sunshine that prevails over the Roussillon terroirs. Intense and aromatic, it explodes with notes of fresh apricot and grapefruit before finishing delicately with a few iodine touches. To be enjoyed immediately but may also improve over the next 5 years.


Figure Libre Freestyle is the name given to an ambitious range of wines designed to shake up conventions and break new ground for expressing the inherent style of Languedoc and Roussillon. Turning its back on appellation rules, it favours freedom of choice in terms of varietal range, both single varietals and blends. Figure Libre Freestyle reflects a desire to think outside the box and bring together grape varieties that would otherwise never have met in the same bottle.

50% Grenache Blanc et Gris, 25% Maccabeu, 15% Marsanne, 10% Roussanne

"40% Grenache Blanc and Grenache Gris, 25% Maccabeu, 25% Marsanne, 10% Roussanne – all from Roussillon.
Ripe and rich and brûléed oranges on the nose. Lots of firm fruit, blood oranges and satsuma with a tiny bit of caraway spice. Full and satiny with good grip and edges. Pretty good finish, lingering smokiness over cantaloupe melon. Great, lip-smacking stuff!
16.5 / 20 Points."
