Côtes du Roussillon Villages | Rouge | 2021

The Grenache grapes are carefully harvested and placed whole-cluster into wooden and stainless steel tanks, where they undergo cold carbonic maceration. After alcoholic fermentation, Syrah is added to complete the blend. Careful aging in wooden and stainless steel tanks ensures a velvety texture and well-integrated tannins, resulting in a harmonious, well-structured wine.

Our Review of the Cuvée

With a deep purple color, this wine captivates with its rich bouquet, where blackberry and raspberry compote blend with spicy and creamy notes. On the palate, it reveals an enveloping roundness and a full-bodied texture. Its velvety texture and well-integrated tannins give it a beautiful harmony, amplified by intense fruitiness and an infectious freshness. The finish leaves a lasting impression of richness, with slightly candied fruit and lingering spicy notes, offering a striking and flavorful tasting experience.

Jeff Carrel is one of those wine personalities difficult to categorize. A former consulting oenologist who became a négociant-winemaker, he collaborates with vignerons from Languedoc, Roussillon, and the Southwest to create accessible, authentic, and often very well-crafted cuvées for their price point.

His approach is primarily based on fruit, balance, and tasting pleasure. No unnecessary embellishment: Jeff Carrel's wines aim to remain delightful, easy to drink, and true to their terroir. Some cuvées have become true staples for Southern wine enthusiasts, thanks to their consistency and excellent value for money.

Generous reds, fresh and aromatic whites, more ambitious cuvées, or everyday wines: this collection encapsulates Jeff Carrel's universe, featuring bottles that appeal equally to curious amateurs and passionate connoisseurs seeking delightful discoveries.
