Benjamin Taillandier Laguzelle
Fragrant bouquet of blackberry, plum and bramble, dried herbs, baking spice and a touch of black pepper. On the palate, it's light to medium bodied, generous with more juicy fruit and gentle tannins. Finishing with good acidity to keep things refreshing and easygoing.
Benjamin Taillandier trained alongside natural winemaker Jean-Baptiste Senat before settling in his family’s hometown of Caunes-Minervois, to start his own project. He now works 9.5 hectares all by hand and fully Ecocert certified. Benjamin feels that many of the wines in the Minervois AOC are too concentrated and alcoholic, and works hard to make wines that, while full flavored, are lighter, fresher, and lower in alcohol than most average wines from the Languedoc. Indeed, there is a level of liveliness in his wines that you seldom see in the wines of the region, Benjamin is happily introducing people to the concept of Minervois “vin de soif”.
