Winemaker's note

Our ancestors were already living in the Tautavel region 560,000 years ago. The magnificent, ancient landscapes harbour vineyards in a limestone-clay and schist amphitheatre.

Winegrower's note

The work begins in the vineyard with a selection of the most suitable plots of land to produce this type of wine. The grapes are mainly hand-harvested. A double sorting system is carried out in the vineyard and in the cellar. The vinification is traditional, and the grapes are therefore destemmed before the maceration phase, which lasts between 3 and 4 weeks. The grapes are then pressed before the malolactic fermentation. A third of the wine is aged for 9 months in barrels, the rest being kept in vats.

Tasting notes

Adeep, bright colour. The nose reveals a rich range of black fruit, liquorice, truffle and black olive aromas. On the palate, the wine offers power, volume, density and a solid structure, with lots of freshness, elegance and silky tannins. Afull-bodied, sophisticated wine.

Food and Wine Pairing

Ideal at 18°C with grilled peppers, caramel pork or matured cheeses.
