A languedoc medium sweet wine. Great with cheese after dinner and the locals make an excellent sangria with it which goes down well on the beach — 4 years ago
Mise de Septembre 2003. Tasted June 2020. Mahogany/red brick color. Acetone aroma that quickly blows off. Palate is racy, sweet/sour. Balanced and complex. Good with parma prosciutto or serrano ham, thai chicken satay with peanut sauce, and pad thai. — 6 years ago

Blend of 50% Grenache, 50% Carignan from 85-year-old, co-planted vines at approximately 900 ft in Banyuls. Aged for 6 months in used oak. Very fragrant and fruit-forward. Beautiful aromas of red fruit, strawberry jam and floral notes. Ripe, juicy, super drinkable — 6 years ago

Called southern Rhône off the bat. Not the cloying overblown kind but like perfect amount of serious and perfect amount of pleasure. Sense of place for sure 👌🏼 — 7 years ago
Great complement to foie gras and banyuls vinegar reduction. — 8 years ago
From the same appellation boundaries as Banyuls, this Collioure wine is a stunner. While a bit reductive when first uncorked - it’s stoic, structured and remarkably complex - a pillar of inky anise, leather, cayenne, rosemary flavor. Spice and garrigue meet blackberry liqueur on the lengthy finish. It’s the classic combination of rusticity and elegance that southern France does so well. 80% Mourvèdre, 10% Grenache, 10% Carignan. — 9 years ago

The last vintage of the very old vines with incredible low yields. In 2001 the plot was replanted. — 17 days ago
