Our opinion on the vintage

This wine displays a deep purple hue, showcasing a bouquet of ripe cherry, cocoa, and sweet spices. On the palate, it seduces with its velvety texture, both round and full-bodied, accompanied by a subtle freshness imparted by a delicate effervescence. Each sip is a pleasure, evolving into a lively and tangy finish, where an even more exuberant cherry flavor and a comforting touch of cocoa reappear. A perfect choice to accompany grilled meats or other dishes, this wine is sure to captivate lovers of intense and indulgent nuances.

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.
