Blog Taste Languedoc (UK) July 14th 2009
I've been regularly tasting, not to mention drinking and enjoying, the wines at Domaine la Croix-Belle in Puissali?on for some ten years now. This is one of the leading estates of the Vin de Pays des Côtes de Thongue, in itself one of the more rewarding vins de pays of the Languedoc. Apart from Vin de Pays d?Oc, most areas of the Languedoc have a smaller, regional vin de pays, but few have much of a reputation outside their own immediate area. However, the Cotes de Thongue, as there is no parallel appellation in the area, has created a real identity of its own. All the wines of La Croix-Belle are C?tes de Thongue, rather than the more anonymous Vin de Pays d'Oc. Jacques Boyer took over his father's estate in 1977 and has worked steadily at improving and developing his wines, supported by his friendly wife, Francoise. You immediately sense their immense commitment to their particular corner of the Languedoc.
