Description:
A family estate for more than six generations, Mas de Boislauzon is overseen by Madame Monique Chaussy. The brother and sister team of Daniel, winemaker, and Christine, commercialization, have brought the estate quite far over the past couple of decades. The cellar and offices are located just north of Châteauneuf-du-Pape in the commune of Orange. Daniel’s parents always produced quality Châteauneufs and Côtes du Rhône but were not as driven to bottle his entire production the way their children and grandkids and are today. In fact, Daniel added a second cuvée to the lineup in 2000 with the Cuvée du Quet, which is named after the area’s original name: “Quet”. Not stopping there, in 2006 a Mourvèdre-dominant bottling, ‘Tintot,’ was introduced but is only produced in years when Mourvèdre really shines. In 2013, the winery received full Organic certification for all of their vineyards but have used organic treatments and practices for more than a decade already.
70% Grenache and 30% Mourvèdre. Soil: The holdings are spread across 12 parcels in varying soils including sand, claylimestone, and galets roulés. There is a lot of sand in Pignan, Boislauzon has more pebbles, while Brusquières and Palestor have a lot of clay. The grapes are 0% destemmed, vinified in concrete and aged in concrete tank and barrique for 12 months before bottling. There are a lot of happenings at Mas de Boislauzon. The wines are as good as ever, and they now have some extra help. Since 2015 and 2016 Crissy’s two sons Jaurice and Contine and Daniel’s son Arlaud have joined the winery increasing the staff from 2 to 5 in just a few years!
