What a lovely Viognier produced by the Mas d'Espanet with this cuvée Freesia. This wine is fresh, fruity, without any heaviness. A lovely bottle for an aperitif or a meal. It will go well with a lovely goat's cheese platter. The Mas d'Espanet is a twenty-hectare wine estate located in Saint-Mamet-du-Gard. Run by Agnès and Denys Armand, the estate uses biodynamic farming methods. As the terroir is fairly cool (close to a large 8-hectare wood), the wines of Mas d'Espanet possess excellent balance. As the prices of the Freesia cuvées, their entry-level wines, are very attractive, this is a profit. Guide des meilleurs vins de France 219 about Mas d'Espanet: "This beautiful estate of some twenty hectares is located in the commune of Saint-Mamert-du-Gard, halfway between Uzes and Sommières, on the edge of the new Duché d'Uzès appellation. Agnès and Denys Armand use biodynamic viticulture in a wild environment, on the edge of a vast wood of over 8 hectares. It's a very cool terroir, which explains why half the production is devoted to whites."
