The estate and the wine |
|
|
A true local, Pierre Vaïsse settled in Aniane in 2007, at the heart of the Terrasses du Larzac. Today, he is a well-regarded figure among wine enthusiasts, carrying on the tradition of farmer-winemakers.
His 18-hectare vineyard, cultivated organically over the years with dedication and patience, thrives on the pebbly, clay, and limestone soils of the region. Inspired by his friends Laurent Vaillé (La Grange des Pères) and Frédéric Pourtalié (Moncalmès), Pierre crafts wines that are both deep and expressive, combining richness and softness with a smooth, velvety texture, all enhanced by extended aging. |

Dominated by Syrah, the 2021 Red IGP Pays d’Hérault Gualibaou du Russe is a wine aged in barrels that offers pure, concentrated aromas of dark fruit, leather, and cocoa. It will require some time to fully appreciate, as the structure is still rich, with firm tannins, though the profile remains fresh and enticing. A wine to explore over the next 6 to 8 years, clearly marked by its Languedoc terroir, with very subtle smoky flavors on the finish. Rated 94/100 by the Selection Committee. |
