Buzet wines, a lesser known appellation south of Bordeaux

I recently purchased  Domaine de la Croix (Vielles Vignes 2001), a wine from the Buzet appellation.
A charming town Buzet is located on the banks of the Baise river south of Bordeaux on the way to Toulouse. I discovered these wines some 20 years ago while living in the Loire Valley thanks to a knowledgeable wine shop owner. So this purchase was tinted with a hint of nostalgia. The wine was simple and pleasant. If you like slow travel you can actually rent a boat for a nonchalant cruise on the Baise river.
