Château Beauregard Mirouze - Lauzina 2018
Château Beauregard-Mirouze is located in Corbières in the Languedoc. The family estate belongs to Karine and Nicolas Mirouze. They own 25 hectares of vines entirely managed in certified biodynamic agriculture since 2018. The estate is also made up of 2 hectares of olive trees and the couple have about fifty sheep grazing in their vines from November to April. They produce 10 cuvées to orient each plot unit. This selective work, which is questioned each year, is the basis of their qualitative mastery. All the grapes are harvested by hand, fermentations are spontaneous with indigenous yeasts and vinified without inputs.
Lauzina is a blend of Roussanne (50%) and Vermentino (50%) grown on the northern slopes of the Fontfroide Massif. After direct pressing, the juice is settled then fermentation begins with indigenous yeasts in French oak demi-muids of 400 and 600 liters. Aging lasts 4 months on lees and then in vats. Lauzina is the name of a parcel which means "holm oak" in Occitan.
Grape varieties: 50% Roussanne, 50% Vermentino
