LANGUEDOC
Mas Des Quernes
A test of friendship and a love of organics brought together two very special men.
Jean Natoli, an internationally recognized oenologist and Peter Riegel,
an organic wine guru joined together to create Mas des Quernes.
Together, on the banks of the Larzac, these two men found a magnificent landscape of plateaus and terraces and built their dream. Their wines have defining style from the Languedoc terroir and along with the unpredictability of nature, are an exceptional representation of this well renowned region. Gens et Pierres, Sud Chardonnay and Sud-Sud Rouge, are wines of pure southern pleasure, exuding southern hospitality in every easy pour. 'Les Ruches’, the Merlot/Syrah/Cabernet/Grenache/ blend is indigenous to the Languedoc, both classic and modern.
His older brother 'Villa Romaine’ is the biggest personality of the estate, asserting itself between opulence and elegance. Certified organic, all of Jean and Pierre’s wines reflect their strong friendship, every bottle representing the fruits of their passion and every glass reinforcing their bond. We are delighted to share this southern charm with you.
