WINES - ACCORDS
Our Accords range reflects what our winemaker, Kirsten, says are "wines of her imagination." The goal is to put in the bottle the best that our vineyards have to offer, whether that be a single variety or a blend, making up whites, rosés and reds. They are crafted specifically to complement food, and though we make suggestions as to possible matches, everyone's tastes are different and we hope that people will explore and discover what makes a great pairing for them.
​
These wines are made under the Indications Géographiques Protégées (IGP) Saint Guilhem le Désert system, which allows us freedom to make the wines as we wish, to attain the ultimate in expression.
Accords
The 2020 Accords blanc is an elegant wine made to pair with a range of food. Aromas range from white flower blossom, tropical fruit, restrained oak barrel and a mineral note at the end. The palate is long, elegant and packed with flavours of green melon, mandarin, juicy fruit with a tingly acidity which lingers in the mouth. Perfect for pairing with white meats and seafood, so try with coquilles St. Jacques, ceviche or a risotto.

The 2022 Concours des Vins ELLE à table awarded this wine a Gold Medal!
"Beautiful colour with golden hues. The nose of this wine is as complex as it is bewitching: melon, yellow fruit, laurel, vanilla. The palate reflects great precision with the work done in the vineyard and in the cellar: beautiful density, aromatic complexity and length. The citrus notes at the end of the palate give it a lot of character. The taste and the substance are balanced." (translated from French)

The 2020 Accords Terrasses du Larzac rouge is generous, ripe and rich with summer fruit, with hints of spice and herbs dominating the aromas. The palate is elegant, but full flavoured, with supple tannins and a complex lingering finish.
Try pairing it with roasted stuffed mushrooms, slow cooked roasted beef with a red wine reduction, grilled autumn vegetables with balsamic vinegar or enjoy with aged hard cheeses.

Tamlyn Currin, of JancisRobinson.com:
"This really does smell like plum cake, top loaded with cooked berries and chocolate. The fruit is dark red, glossy and bursting with sweet acidity, although it has a lovely long edge of tapenade and thyme to hold it in check. And yes, the chocolate is there, right on the end. Perfectly proportioned tannins, smoothly holding the balance, like a gymnast on the bar. Drink 2023-2027. 16.5/20" (September 2023)
