    Press Release Revue de Presse 1 CHÂTEAU THÉNAC ROUGE / RED L’assemblage du premier vin est à l’image du terroir de Thénac : précieux et complexe. Un vin intense à la texture veloutée. Sa puissante expression de fruits noirs et d’épices, ses tanins parfaitement fondus sont autant de marques d’élégance. The blending of our Grand Vin mirrors Thénac’s terroir: precious and complex. An intense wine with a velvety texture, its strong flavour of black fruits and spices and its perfectly well-rounded tannins showcase its elegance. CHÂTEAU THÉNAC 2019 “Really well done with deep fruit and lots of wet earth and dark fruit. Full an tight with a muscular structure.” James Suckling, 92-93 points “ The red 2019 Château Thénac is also noteworthy (reviewing CT 19 White). Revealing a dense ruby/purple color as well as a ripe bouquet of spiced currants, tobacco, and earthy, cedary notes, it hits the palate with medium to full body, some chewy yet ripe tannins, and a good finish. It’ opens up nicely with time in the glass, and my money is on it being an outstanding bottle of wine.” Jeb Dunnuck, 89-92 points “ The 2019 Thénac is a big, heady wine that offers tons of immediacy. Black cherry, bittersweet chocolate, new leather, licorice, cloves and sweet French oak infuse this unctuous, full-throttle Bordeaux with plenty of richness.” Antonio Galloni, 87-89 points “ Dark purple colour with violet hue and black core. Opulent and concentrated nose with aroma reminiscent of black cherries, prunes and blackcurrant jam, mild spices and a Port-like opulence in the background.

  • Millet Oppidum English
    Château de Millet just situated outside the town of Eauze in the Gers. Devoted to mixed farming and the production of Armagnac, the estate today has 50 hectares of vines for the production of Côtes de Gascogne wines « Domaine de Millet ». The vines enjoy a north westernly position on the green hills of Eauze where the soil alternates between clay limestone and the sandy soils known as 'sables fauves'. Francis Dèche, the proprietor, who follows in the footsteps of five generations has a policy of quality : traditional grape varieties, vineyard cultivation with respect to the environment and constant development in the methods and means of vinification. With his daughter Laurence, who joined him in 1999, they sell a full and varied range that are just waiting to be discovered ! At Millet, the land and its relief tells a story of the history of man . The ruins of a pre-roman oppidum, the currencies and the amphoras discovered near to the vineyard are witnesses of the past. Before building the town of st Elusa in the 1 Century of this era, known today as Eauze, the Elusate people that lived here, learnt how to cultivate vines and appreciate wine from the Romans. OPPIDUM 2007 50% chardonnay, 50% sauvignon The vinification The two grape varieties are vinified separately then blended together and kept in tanks for 6 months. This wine is very original in style with a multitude of nuances that merge to give a surprising floral and spicy flavour . Tasting Notes -White mid dry wine, light in colour with golden yellow highlights -Intense and seductive bouquet with a concentration in floral notes, exotic fruits and soft spice.

La numérotation des voies ne concernait pour l’instant que le bourg et le hameau de Beauzelle. Comme vous le savez, le Département du Tarn s’est engagé à ce que tous les foyers soient des- servis par la fibre optique au plus tard en 2022. Pour que cette opération soit menée à son ter- me, chaque habitation doit être numérotée. Ainsi, le Conseil Municipal a décidé de terminer l’adressage et la numérotation pour l’ensemble du territoire communal. En plus de l’intérêt pour la fibre, ceci permettra une bonne identifica- tion des maisons pour les services de secours, le travail de la Poste, des services publics et com- merciaux ou encore la localisation GPS. Les services municipaux mettront en place les numéros qui pourront être installés soit sur la boite aux lettres, soit en façade. Pour certains, la numérotation va changer pour être cohérente et conforme aux préconisations.
