Xut Means Steep

Reinhard Brundig, tireless ambassador of the 7th art, is a mad wine lover. He bought Courbissac in 2002, he dreams of making wine, he is under the spell of this isolated place lost in the scrubland and the pines. He is renovating the cellar , buys the first tuns and begins to vinify the different parcels of Courbissac.
The construction is slow, you have to review the copy several times, Courbissac cannot be tamed so easily.

In 2013, he sought to renew his style, he wanted fresher, more elegant wines, and it was in November 2013 that he met Brunnhilde Claux.

At the age of 30, Brunnhilde takes over the technical part of the estate, sets up a gentle vinification, in whole bunches.

The aging is more restrained, the wines are more supple, a new page is being written for Courbissac.
And Courbissac surrenders. The wines relax, the freshness wins, a turning point begins in Courbissac.

The domain is exploited on 15 hectares of vines.

Roc du pière comes from a region called piègne or pière in the local patois.
This terroir is made up of 2 plots on either side of the estate.

Grape variety 50% Syrah 50% Mourvèdre

The stone, the rockery characterizes this cru, and naturally reveals a dense, powerful wine with spicy characteristics.
The stone is a terroir of great strength, depth and unlimited density. It reveals the power and balance of Minervois wines.

Before going into viticulture, he spent ten years trying to understand the wine, even going so far as to make it in his bathroom in England!

After two years of training, in 2004, he rents 7 hectares of AOC Coteaux du Languedoc Pic Saint Loup and Grés de Montpellier vines in Combaillaux and Saint Gély du Fesc. He buys agricultural and winemaking equipment and creates “the Chemin des Rêves”. 
The name of the estate comes from a small path that runs along the vines and which had been nicknamed “Chemin des Rêves” by a resident of the village who came to walk there every day.
In 2008, he buys 7 additional hectares of vines at Saint Gély and a cellar.
In 2009, he builds a sales and tasting cellar.

IGP AUDE HAUTERIVE PIECE DE ROCHE CHATEAU LA BARONNE 2015

          

Grape Carignan Plantation 1892

The harvest is done in boxes, by hand on the whole field. Each parcel is vinified and aged separately until final assembly. The grapes are sorted first in the vineyard, then before and after destemming. The berries are pushed by gravity in the cement tanks, stainless steel and frustoconical wood manufactured by Marc Grenier in Courberon.

For vinification with whole grapes, we tread the grapes in the wooden vats.
Whites and rosés are vinified on whole juices.
The alcoholic fermentation is done with indigenous yeasts of the soil.
No sulfur is added before breeding. Some of our wines are sulphite-free (apart from sulphites produced by native yeasts).

On the foothills of Larzac, perched 350 m above sea level, Le Pas de l'Escalette is an emblematic passage, the estate offers a range of wines of unique freshness and finesse...
