Languedoc Domaine du Pas de l'Escalette

Our committee's review

A true reference in the Larzac and holder of two stars in the prestigious French wine guide the RVF, Domaine du Pas de l’Escalette is in a class of its own. For the past twenty years, Delphine and Julien Zernott have tamed these wild, stony slopes, where ancient vines cling to limestone terraces. Farmed biodynamically, their wines combine precision, elegance and a freshness that never lets go.

Here, altitude meets Mediterranean varieties, giving wines full of energy and minerality, wines that feel exactly right for our time.

This is one of the most forward-thinking estates in the region, and one of the finest. Discover it now through two striking Terrasses du Larzac wines you won’t want to miss.

The 2023 Red Languedoc Les Petits Pas is a delightful, juicy, and fruity red wine that perfectly embodies its Mediterranean roots. It's a thirst-quenching pleasure wine, convivial and sincere, perfect for enjoying this summer. This fruit-forward treat is best served slightly chilled, paired with charcuterie, terrines, or grilled white meats. Rated 91/100 by the Selection Committee.

Always true to its hallmark of elegance and precision, the 2023 Terrasses du Larzac Red Les Clapas impresses with both brilliance and depth. The nose is highly expressive, opening with smoky, savory notes that recall the finest syrahs of the Rhône Valley. On the palate, the wine is ripe and dense, with a refined texture and remarkable freshness. Whole-cluster vinification brings the finesse and length that have become the estate’s signature. A superb wine, both generous and refined, and one you will have fun pouring blind alongside the great syrahs of the Rhône Valley. Rated 94/100 by the Selection Committee.
