Clos du Gravillas (Saint-Jean-de-Minervois) ★ 4.7
Saint-Jean-de-Minervois, Minervois · 1 rue de la Poste, 34360 Saint-Jean-de-Minervois, France
John and Nicole Bojanowski at Clos du Gravillas at Saint-Jean-de-Minervois work around 7 hectares of certified-organic, biodynamic-leaning parcels at 350 metres altitude.
Tip: The Lo Vielh Carignan and L'Inattendu Grenache Gris are the canonical natural-wine cuvees; visits by appointment with John or Nicole.
Mas Coutelou (Puimisson) ★ 4.7
Puimisson, Herault · Le Village, 34480 Puimisson, France
Jeff Coutelou's Mas Coutelou at Puimisson is among the canonical Languedoc natural-wine producers. The estate's 13 hectares are farmed organically since 1987 and biodynamically without formal certification, with no-sulphur-added cellar work as standard. Mas Coutelou bottlings move through specialist natural-wine cavistes worldwide and are cult names in Paris, London and Berlin natural-wine markets.
Tip: Mas Coutelou wines are nearly impossible to find at retail; allocations move through specialist natural-wine cavistes (La Cave des Papilles in Paris, Le Vin en Tete in Lyon). Direct estate contact for visits.
