Coteaux du Languedoc Domaine de La Pèira en Damaisèla Deusyls de la Pèira Karine Ahton et Robert Dougan 2017

Located in Saint-Saturnin-de-Lucian, half way between La Grange des Pères and Daumas-Gassac, the La Pèira en Damaisèla domain is a recent creation (2004). Karine Ahton (a Languedoc lawyer) and Robert Dougan (an Australian composer) are the founders of this 11-hectare domain in the Terrasses du Larzac, which they immediately set out to position at the top of the range, with a highly quality-oriented approach. Work in the vines is very precise and meticulous; in the winery, the key is as little intervention as possible. This domain has been praised by international critics (Robert Parker, Jancis Robinson, etc.), as "Many observers consider this to be the most exciting estate in the Languedoc" (R. Parker).

Deusyls de la Peira, the property’s white wine, is matured in little barrels. The nose offers aromas of white-fleshed fruit (apple) and flowers with some mineral notes. The palate is both rich, with body, and fresh; and its length is impressive. This very fine southern white pairs very well with fish in sauce.
