About François Ducrot
Francois Ducrot is located in Lansargues (Languedoc) where he works closely with local grape growers who share his dedication to environmentally friendly agriculture. He purchases organic grapes from the eastern part of Languedoc and vinifies in his cellar in Lansargues. Vinification is natural with spontaneous fermentation and no additives but a touch of sulfites to guarantee a clean and precise taste.
François source people first and terroir. Each of his relationship has been built over the last decade which give him access to special terroir and incredible quality of grapes among a pretty conventional driven area. This part of Languedoc is full of sediments, deep soil which preserve a nice acidity while ripening gently. The dryness of the climate and extreme temperature still works in this area. The grapes are ripe but with a smart harvest, François is able to produce crisp wines that taste more like the north of France with the energy of the south.
