At the foot of the Agly's schist hills, Domaine Semper crafts wines where Carignan and Grenache find fertile ground for expression. The Roussillon heat translates into dark, ripe fruit, while the freshness of the higher-altitude soils provides a welcome counterpoint. Gentle winemaking prioritizes precision over power, resulting in wines with fine tannins and a fleshy texture. Limited oak aging preserves a clean aromatic profile and just the right amount of body. The style remains straightforward and direct, with a restrained depth that characterizes this corner of the south, where old vines continue to play a vital role.
