Clos du Gravillas is based in Saint Jean de Minervois, where John and Nicole Bojanovski have farmed organically since 1996. John’s background in ecology has shaped the estate’s philosophy from the outset, with a strong focus on biodiversity, soil health and low yields rather than appellation driven styles. The vineyards sit on a high limestone and gravel plateau exposed to wind and sun, creating naturally low vigour conditions that suit old vines and favour freshness despite the Mediterranean climate. The domaine has long been associated with natural wine in the Languedoc, but always with a strong sense of balance and site expression rather than ideology.
Rendez Vous Sur La Lune 2022 is a red blend of Syrah, Carignan and Cinsault, drawn from old vine parcels on limestone and clay soils. Bottled young, the wine shows a deep youthful colour and a rounded nose of ripe red fruit with clear Syrah spice. On the palate it is structured and firm, with youthful tannins, peppery notes and fresh acidity underpinning the ripe fruit core. The balance suggests good ageing potential as the wine settles and integrates.
