Tomas Clancy, the wine writer of Ireland’s leading financial newspaper, devoted column inches commensurate with the size of the Languedoc to an in-depth article on “France’s most mysterious wine region”.

Centred on Rives-Blanques, “one of the rising stars” of the region, Clancy highlighted five Rives-Blanques wines, ranging from our Blanquette de Limoux (endowed with “the meal-like complexity of a much more expensive champagne”) to our chenin blanc, Dédicace, “one of the most startling wines in the world”.
