Marc Penavayre is about 60 medals in major competitions over the last ten years. The word quality takes its full meaning here. Located on the highest terrace of the Tarn, the vineyard covers 26 ¾ ha, 65 of which are negligent. This exceptional situation, supported by modern winemaking at the level of the winery and crowned with the know-how of the winemaker, nourishes the reputation of this great house. The heart of Thibaut, where charm and vinosity combine. Cultivated for generations, the exploitation was picked up and enlarged by Marc in 1991, coming after Louis his father. Today it has 30 hectares of vine refilled on gentle cultivation techniques. The recipe is simple: a work of the vine to the nearest land, without fertilizers or weeds, favoring natural products, harvesting a very healthy harvest, very healthy, sorted, and guided vinifications by the idea of «making the earth speak» in indigenous yeasts. Wines are neither glued nor filtered. Today they are very beautiful ambassadors of the negligent grape, which for almost two thousand years has made their charm and incomparable originality. More than ever, the concern is to make a wine 100% grape juice. The farm has been officially converted to organic farming since 2008 and now holds organic qualification from its vintage 2011.
