La CinsO from Domaine Anne Gros & Jean-Paul Tollot is proof that great winemakers can coax finesse from even the most unassuming grapes. Made entirely from 50+ year-old Cinsault vines planted in the sandstones and marls of Minervois, this wine brings a Burgundian touch to a region better known for rustic, powerhouse reds.
The result? A delicate yet expressive wine that dances between roundness and freshness, seamlessly pairing with everything from roasted meats to lighter fare. Fermented with the precision of a Vosne-Romanée—stainless steel, no frills, just pure fruit and terroir—it’s a revelation of what Cinsault can be when treated with care.
Anne Gros and Jean-Paul Tollot didn’t land in Minervois by accident. The limestone-rich soils and elevated vineyards of Le Causse spoke to them like a siren’s call, a reminder of their home terroirs in Burgundy. Their Minervois project is a love story—of soil, of place, of possibility. And La CinsO? It’s the heart of that story. Ethereal yet grounded, it shatters expectations of what Languedoc reds should be. Forget heavy-handed oak or overripe fruit—this is Cinsault in its purest form, whispering rather than shouting.
