The estate and the wine |

Awarded 1 star in the RVF Guide, Domaine La Terrasse d'Elise is one of the cherished addresses in Languedoc. Located on limestone and rolled pebble terroirs in the Aniane region, Xavier Braujou discreetly produces outstanding southern wines in very small quantities. These wines are characterized by their strong personality, remarkable finesse, and a forward-thinking approach.
Xavier Braujou's reference point is none other than Rayas, and when you taste his wines, you can't help but see the stylistic resemblance. Old goblet-trained vines, minimal yields, principles of organic and biodynamic farming, meticulous cellar work with minimal interventions, low extraction, and the use of native yeasts all contribute to crafting cuvées that rank at the pinnacle of Languedoc production. |

a pure Cinsault, the 2021 red Le Pradel is simply superb! It's a wine to enjoy in good company, fruity and delectable, unfolding notes of Morello cherry, strawberry, and crushed raspberry with exquisite aromatic subtlety. A wine with an elegant texture, fresh and savory, to be appreciated over the next 5 to 6 years. It's also a favorite of the Committee. |

Hand-harvested, traditional vinification with indigenous yeasts and little extraction, aged for 12 months in barrels, no filtration, low sulfite content.
