Éclipse is the flagship cuvée from Domaine de Tholomies, crafted from old vines in the prized La Livinière appellation—the first recognised cru of Minervois. Dominated by Syrah, with Grenache and Mourvèdre, it delivers deep aromas of black cherry, plum, and blackberry, layered with black pepper, herbs, and subtle oak spice. The palate is bold yet refined, with smooth tannins and a long, savoury finish. A wine of depth and finesse, showcasing the elegance and power that La Livinière is known for.
A selection from La Livinière, the cru of Minervois. Syrah-led blend with Grenache and Mourvèdre. Hand-harvested, fermented in stainless steel, then aged in oak barrels for added complexity and structure
