A fresh, primeur-style red from Roussillon made with equal parts Grenache and Syrah sourced from 45-year-old vines rooted in granitic sand. Farmed biodynamically, the wine undergoes semi-carbonic maceration for 8 days to emphasize lift and fruit. A short aging period of three weeks in barrel keeps the profile vibrant and immediate. Unfined and unfiltered, it captures a raw, energetic expression of the vintage.

Their winemaking approach emphasizes minimal intervention,

About the Region

Roussillon, France

In the rugged landscapes of Roussillon, natural winemaking is a testament to the region's wild beauty and rich viticultural heritage. Tucked away in the southeastern corner of France, bordering Spain and the Mediterranean Sea, Roussillon boasts a diverse terroir of rocky hillsides, sun-drenched plains, and coastal breezes. Here, amidst ancient vineyards, winemakers embrace organic and biodynamic farming practices, cultivating indigenous grape varieties such as Grenache Noir, Carignan, and Mourvèdre with care and respect for the land. In the cellar, minimal intervention is the guiding principle, with spontaneous fermentations and aging in neutral vessels allowing the true expression of the grapes and terroir to shine through. The resulting natural wines from Roussillon are a reflection of the region's rugged beauty, with their bold flavors, intense aromas, and a sense of place that captures the spirit of this enchanting corner of France.
