Mas Foulaquier
MAS FOULAQUIER, PIERRE & BLANDINE JEQUIER, Pic Saint Loup – Biodynamic
Pierre Jequier was seduced by the wild, majestic landscape of the Pic St Loup, a high limestone peak which provides the backdrop to an exceptional landscape. The 15ha of vines are set in an environment of Mediterranean garrigue and are exposed to the cool climate of the Cevennes foothills creating wines which can be cellared for a surprisingly long time. Mas Foulaquier is made up of two distinct terroirs: Foulaquier and les Tonillières, Foulaquiers is planted mainly to Syrah and Grenache with 2 ha of white varieties whilst les Tonillières consists of old Carignan and Grenache vines with some younger Syrah plants. Production is organic and biodynamic; vines are ploughed and harvest is manual. The wines are made with the greatest respect for the grapes and terroir, using only the natural yeasts present on the grapes and without the use of oenological products.
