Specialist Wine Merchants award in the Decanter World Wine Awards 2009

"Terrific wines at all prices, often but not always from lesser-known regions and producers; enthusiastic, knowledgeable and passionate staff; and transparent value for money without recourse to endless price promotions."

Pic St Loup Wines

Outrgeously, Pic Saint-Loup does not enjoy its own Appellation Contrôlée status but is classified more humbly as 'Cru' of the Coteaux du Languedoc. This oversight will probably be rectified in due course but any official promotion will, almost certainly, be accompanied by a corresponding increase in prices, so perhaps we should all keep quiet. What Pic Saint-Loup illustrates admirably is that France's viticultural backwaters are still a rich hunting ground for good value, honest, well-crafted, in-ponced-about-with wines that offer really rewarding drinking. Here in the hills 20 kilometres north of Montpellier a score of rugged, independent winemakers have carved out a reputation for producing superior, earthy reds from traditional varietals - Grenache, Syrah and Mourvèdre must account for 90% of any finished wine.
