Robert Plageoles believes in rediscovering what has been lost. Not for him the slavish adherence to global varietals; he has grubbed up his plantings of Sauvignon and concentrated instead on the native Mauzac, in which he has found the potential for a whole range of styles. Mauzac, when dry can produce a fascinating soft style redolent of pears, white cherries and angelica; it is also responsible for sparkling wines and an array of sweeties ranging from the off dry to the unique piercingly dry sherry-like Vin de Voile. Vin d'Autan is made from the obscure Ondenc in vintages when the grapes shrivel and raisin in the warm autumn winds. The style similar to a Beerenauslese or a Tokaji, contriving to be sweet, yet subtly fresh: bruleed autumn apples and pears flecked with syrup and a persistent elegant finish hinting at walnuts. Available in 50 cl bottles. (12 x 50 cl)

Robert Plageoles Domaine Les TresCantous VIN DE VOILE Gaillac Description: Robert Plageoles believes in rediscovering what has been lost. Not for him the slavish adherence to global varietals; he has grubbed up his plantings of Sauvignon and concentrated instead on the native Mauzac, in which he has found the potential for a whole range of styles. Mauzac, when dry can produce a fascinating soft style redolent of pears, white cherries and angelica; it is also responsible for sparkling wines and an array of sweeties ranging from the off dry to the unique piercingly dry sherry-like Vin de Voile. This arcane wine is made from the first pressing, which is fermented in old oak and returned to the same barrel where it remains for a further seven years, losing about 20% of volume. After a year the must develops a thin veil of mould which protects it from the air. The flavour is delicate, reminiscent of salt-dry amontillado, with the acidity to age half a century. (6 x 75 cl) Price: £185.55
