Domaine de Cavalier
In the scrubby garrigue of Languedoc-Roussillon, Domaine de Cavalier sits around a Cévenol farmhouse and speaks the IGP Saint-Guilhem-le-Désert Val de Montferrand with clarity.
Jean-Benoît Cavalier shaped the property in the 1980s as a sister estate to Château de Lascaux: 25 hectares framed by Aleppo pines and green oaks, rooted in limestone and sandy-loam soils. Organic farming has guided the vines since 2006, with biodynamic practices introduced in 2015; a slightly cooler pocket near Brouzet and Corconne helps keep balance and definition.
In the cellar the approach is deliberate and stripped back: short macerations, temperature-controlled fermentation, then élevage in concrete. The result is not a performance but a landscape-structured, clean-edged, and quietly confident.Domaine de Cavalier
