The 2021 Comeback
Vin de France | Red | 2021
This blend of Syrah, Carignan, and Grenache exemplifies a meticulous winemaking approach. Carbonic maceration reveals the vibrancy of the fruit and spices, while aging in tanks optimizes aromatic expression. The choices of hand-harvesting and double maceration reflect a quest for complexity and freshness. The varied soils—granitic and schistous—and the age of the vines enhance the typicity of each grape variety before the final blending.

Jeff Carrel | La Boutique
Jeff Carrel's work in the Languedoc region focuses on vineyards that are sometimes neglected or challenging, revitalized through a pragmatic approach to winemaking. Carignan, Grenache, and Syrah are cultivated according to the specific plots, resulting in wines that are sometimes juicy, sometimes more structured.
The winemaking process remains intentionally simple, in order to preserve the rhythm and character of the wines. Some cuvées prioritize immediate enjoyment, while others emphasize a more assertive structure. The entire range is distinguished by a direct, accessible style, clearly expressing the Languedoc landscape.
