Critic Review

16.5/20 jancisrobinson,com "100% Macabeu, spontaneous fermentation, aged in old oak barrels. Apples and sage. A gentle, introverted wine with a kind heart and medicinal soul. You'll find wintergreen and honey, lemon balm, juniper and pears. Soothing sweetness, botanical tonic, aromatic freshness. In spring, it's the wine for asparagus in a honeyed vinaigrette. In summer, it's the wine for courgette flowers stuffed with ricotta and deep-fried with hot honey and lemon drizzled over the top. In autumn, it's the wine for roasted Crown Prince squash stuffed with rosemary and sage goat's cheese; in winter, it's the wine for lentils and beans baked rich in tomatoes almost painfully slowly under a thicket of dried thyme and oregano and then stirred with a sinful extravagance of parmesan.

Natural, organic Macabeu from a beautiful vineyard in Calce, Roussillon. Grown with great care and wildly fermented and aged in old oak barrels. Floral, racy and minerally with soft texture and generous apple and apricot fruit. Just lovely.

Vincent Carreras has been working in wine industry for 13 years. For nine years he worked for a winery in the south of the Roussillon, Andy Cook’s Mas Cristine and Coume del Mas. Working in the vineyard, cellar and commercial activities - the whole shebang!

For four years now he has been employed by a family winery based in Maury - Clos des Vins d'Amour. Who work 25 hectares organically in the west of Roussillon. Mostly in commercial activities, but also working in the cellar.

Alongside this, in 2016, Vincent started a new project - Domaine Odyssée. The 3.5ha of vineyards are in Calce and Baixas, in a heart of Roussillon. The sites are small, but unquestionably some of the most beautiful we have seen.

Vincent draws on the experiences mentioned above and his time in New Zealand (2011), Argentina (2012) and Bordeaux 2011 to help fully realise what he has there in his exceptional terroir.

Vincent works organically, using no weedkillers, no chemical products. He works by hand and with organic fertilizer (he is in conversion right now). He harvests his parcels by himself with friends and family.

In the cellar, Vincent’s philosophy is a minimum of intervention "To keep the fruit and the terroir.".
The wines are extracted gently with just a little pump over. No filtration, no fining. The only preservative is a little dose of sulphites in very low quantities at bottling "It is important for me the stabilise the wine in respect of the future customers".
