Altitude defines character: Albariño at 238 metres
- Eight generations of family vignerons have shaped Laurent Miquel's winemaking philosophy. This heritage informs every decision in vineyard and cellar, from site selection to harvest timing.
- Albariño thrives in unexpected places. Here, at 238 metres altitude in Languedoc, it sheds its Atlantic restraint and embraces southern generosity without losing mineral precision.
- A wine of genuine versatility. Its clarity and acidity cut through rich preparations, making it equally at home with seafood, poultry, or the refined dishes of classical French cuisine.

Product features : Laurent Miquel Pech Gentille Cote 238 2022 — IGP Pays d'Oc
Breeding
In concrete or stainless steel vats on fine lees, with no barrel ageing, to preserve the varietal character without oak influence.
On the eye
Intense yellow robe with pale golden highlights.
On the nose
White stone fruits—white peach and pear—lead, followed by citrus zest: grapefruit and lime. Clean, inviting aromatics with subtle mineral undertones.
In the mouth
Linear and precise, the wine builds on a framework of lively acidity. No excess weight; instead, a vertical tension that carries flavour through to a clean, saline finish.
Laurent Miquel demonstrates that Albariño belongs in southern France when planted at altitude. This wine confounds expectations: Languedoc's sunny generosity meets Atlantic rigour and salinity. Precise, clean, and remarkably drinkable. For those seeking originality beyond the usual Chardonnay and Sauvignon, this is a genuine alternative. Serve chilled beside oysters or with simply prepared seafood.

DOMAINE LAURENT MIQUEL
Based in Cessenon-sur-Orb in the Hérault, Domaine Laurent Miquel farms 200 hectares under certified organic agriculture across the Languedoc appellation. A winemaking family since 1791, Laurent — a trained engineer — took over in 1996 as the eighth generation and made history as the first producer to grow Albariño in France. At Halles Quercamps, we have selected this estate for the coherence of its viticultural project, the diversity of its terroirs — limestone at Cazal Viel, clay-limestone at Auzines — and the precision of its reds, whites, and rosés. A benchmark address for anyone wishing to explore the full depth of the Languedoc.
IGP PAYS D'OC BLANC
Laurent Miquel cultive l\'Albariño à 238 mètres d\'altitude dans le Languedoc, loin de son terroir ibérique d\'origine. Cette audace porte ses fruits : un blanc tendu, sans détour, où l\'acidité structure chaque gorgée. Fruits à chair blanche et zestes d\'agrumes composent son bouquet. À servir frais en apéritif ou face à des fruits de mer et poissons délicats.
