Fons Sanatis

An irreducible winemaker" is as Benoît Braujou, winemaker at Domaine Fons Sanatis, describes himself. To really understand who he is, how he thinks and wants his wines, you have to go and visit him in Saint Jean de Fos, north of Montpellier.

Driven by his roots, Benoît Braujou produces a demanding wine, an author's wine. For him, wine has a soul.

To learn the trade better, he left for Alsace and the Rhône Valley, where he worked on Saint Joseph and Côte-Rôtie, employed as head of culture at Yves Cuilleron.

Attached to his Languedoc origins located in Aniane, he returned to the country in 2003 where he had the chance to cultivate the land of his forefathers at the estate called Fons Sanatis, a source of healing in Occitan.
On his 7 hectares of vineyards, he works alone with his draft horses Bulle and Unau. A work of art imbued with the experience of the three generations of passionate winemakers who preceded it, with respect for nature and the land.

Here biodynamics flow from the source, besides his father and grandfather have always worked in organic, without knowing it.

He understood that to live off the land, one must respect it: Generous nature does its job on its own. The role of the winemaker is only to regulate it in order to reap the fruits, with heart and humility. It is no coincidence that "humility" and "humus" share the same etymological roots... this layer of fertile land so dear to the farmer suggests that in the gesture, harvesting is an inclination before Mother Nature.

In Benoit, don't tell him about his farm, tell him about his vines! It is an aberration for him to exploit the earth, an Earth where we are only passing through.
Apart from any label or certification deemed too rigid, without buttering, its approach goes even further since its niche is natural wines: wines without artifice made with respect for the soil followed by a healthy winemaking.

In the same way, the name Vin de France is also obvious: the classic Languedoc-Roussillon appellations, too restrictive and standardized in the eyes of the winemaker do not correspond to the gourmet, solid and frank profile he wishes to bring to his wines.
Far from the productive excesses that have previously been demanded of Languedoc wines, Benoît Braujou is proud to present his author's wine. Small quantity (3000 bottles), but high quality!

Wine, he tames it. Besides, he has no recipe: as an observer, he adjusts, adapts, thinks. Quite a philosophy! His quest for naturalness pushes him towards ever more authenticity in the expression of the terroir and the grape varieties: the main thing is to cultivate common sense, to return to the logic of things.
Don't tell him either that you drink a Terrace du Larzac, just tell him that you opened a wine of Benedict.

Fons Sanatis, a curiosity of Languedoc that is worth a visit. The pleasure of straying is truly unparalleled!

Fons Sanatis Mémé Jeanne

Dry white wine, from the Petit Manseng variety, vinified as a red, in maceration. Slightly tannic in the mouth but without heaviness, a very long finish.
