Mas Coutelou Clairette 2023

Today Jean Francois farms 14 hectares of vines, as well as a few hundred olive trees that protect his vines from his neighbors farming methods.. His father planted the first vines back in 1966 and was one of the pioneers of organic viticulture in the Hérault, when there were just seven organic wine growers in the entire department, today the estate is registered with ‘Nature et Progrès’.

Mas Coutelou is located in Puimisson, a commune in the Hérault department of the Languedoc and to the east of Béziers. It’s been a winemaking village for over 200 years and most of it’s soils are a mix of red clays and limestone.

Jean Francois “Jeff” Coutelou quietly produces some of the finest quality and best value wines in the Languedoc and has lots of interest in his small production that sells out in an instant every year.
