After various blends used by Axel Prufer to develop this label, in this year Un Pas de Cote is Grenache alone. The vines grow on granite quartz soils and the minerality is pronounced. The grapes undergo a carbonic maceration for a period of two weeks. Result: a splendid Grenache.

Axel Prüfer was born and raised in East Germany, but moved to France as a young man to pursue a career in wine production. It produces delicious natural wines with as little intervention as possible - many of its wines have no added sulfur.
Visiting it in the mountains behind Beziers one is fascinated by the dedication with which he deals with the health of his grapes and the purity of his wines. Every sentence he utters is the result of a deep thought. The vineyard is a picture of health with cobwebs everywhere and an extraordinary biodiversity on display.
Axel uses only natural yeast to ferment his wines and does not add sulfur to all This gives them a liveliness that is more attractive.
It uses stainless steel or fiberglass tanks, old barrels that do not give any oak flavor. The tanks have floating lids so that no air can reach the wine if it does not have enough to fill a tank.
Only one obstacle presents itself: the productions are really limited and the wines almost never available.
