93/100 Jamie Goode wineanorack.com "Carignan, Grenache and Syrah. Parcel selection. Fresh with a note of iron under the supple, ripe yet structured red berry fruits. I love the freshness and bloodiness to this wine. Grainy and supple with a nice spicy bite and lovely focus".

Winemaker Vincent writes "For this 2016 vintage, the quality of our Cabernet Franc was outstanding. During the fermentation process one small batch in oak tank was so pure that we extended the maceration, more like an infusion, to see how the wine would develop with prolonged contact with the grape skins… This experience resulted in an infusion lasting 180 days (normally 20 to 30 days) with eventual pressing of the grapes on the 10th April 2017, during the Easter full moon! "

David Williams: "perfumed, spicy, satin-textured, utterly alluring." The Observer Jan 2018. Jancis Robinson: "Century-old Cinsault vines. Solid and friendly with some sweetness and real interest for the money. Rating: 16/20." Oct 2017.

This Roboul cuvée exudes fruit aromas in abundance with blackberries, blueberries, pomegranates and also garrigue notes. On the palate it's juicy, greedy, the material is fleshy and velvety. There is a perfect balance between alcohol and acidity and we end with a striking freshness! It's a marvelous entry!

Natural, biodynamic and vegan. 50% each Grenache and Carignan from old vines, made without filtering or fining. Red fruit, cherries, juicy with a slightly earthy quality, almost carob-esque. Great drinking.

Chosen for its originality, its exuberance and purity of fruit and characterised by its floral aromas, its roundness and minerality. A wine out of the ordinary, let it surprise you

100% Muscat, naturally fermented then mutage employed with spirit. Rich, opulent, thick and beautifully scented. Really clean and fresh none of the harshness and fire that you can get with this style. Sophisticated.

"Planted in 1905. Fresh, vivid, stony and gravelly with lovely lush black cherry fruit held in savoury tension with notes of minerals and tar and blood. There’s very little clay here, and the result is tannins that are almost brittle: the opposite of a clay soil wine. Has a bracing, fresh tannic structure. Delicate and fine for a Carignan". 94/100 Jamie Goode wineanorak.com

A delightful example, with lovely fruit, character and texture.

Another cracking vintage of this fresh and aromatic - easy drinking - white from the Languedoc-Roussillon with delicate fruit and a bright finish. The Vermentino is concentrated and characterful with delicate aromatics.

The latest addition to the estate's collection is a limited edition range designed as an ode to Domaine Gayda’s spirit of creativity and inventiveness. 80% Syrah, 20% Cinsault. Dark fruit aromas and flavours define this smooth red wine.

Victoria Moore writes (of the 2013 vintage) "a favourite all-rounder red. It’s merlot made precisely à point; there’s a juicy generosity, but also a refreshing leafiness: redcurrant leaves and lightly stewed damsons."

16.5 Jancis Robinson "Hand picked. 40% Syrah from La Livinière, Corbières and Roussillon; 40% Grenache Noir from the same sources;10% Carignan from La Livinière and Corbières; and 10% Mourvèdre from La Livinière. Aged in used barriques for nine months. Bright, dense crimson. Very savoury and appetising. Lovely blend with nothing out of place. Mouth-filling and juicy with just a hint of the smoothness and mineral quality of ink. Almost tastes as though there were a drop of Cabernet Franc in here. Lovely current drinking. Good Value"

Explosion of red fruits on the nose, including raspberry, cherry and ripe strawberry. The palate is smooth and rich with very soft tannins and clean acidity. This is medium bodied with a pleasing finish.

Made by Simon Coulshaw of the minimal-intervention school. Biodynamic farming although not certified. 100% Roussanne planted on their highest vineyards, a steep north-facing slope in the foothills of the Cévennes mountains. Isolated vineyards surrounded by herbaceous shrub and woodland on schist and basalt boulders. Hand-picked at 20-25 hl/ha, Five days' on skins then 48 hours of cold settling before racking. Spontaneous fermentation, no enzymes, no fining, minimal sulphur and sulphites. Carbon dioxide nap used to avoid oxidation. Smells of mimosa and cold pebbles. So tight it's as if the fruit has been hot-waxed onto the palate. Wild, wild fruit and flowers, all hedgerow and fields. Iodine and salt, dust and dry bricks, saffron and yuzu. So much texture it's like licking chalk-dusted rose petals. Fascinating wine, that changes as you sit with it, like sunset dropped into a kaleidoscope, like light on water. Masses of undertow, savoury and sweet. GV (TC) jancisrobinson.com 17/20

This Syrah blend with soft black fruits and spice has been shaped by the sunbaked rocky soils of the unmistakable and very definate Faugeres terroir. A herbal, spicy bouquet is followed by youthful red cherries and supple mineral character derived from the schist rich soils. One of our greatest value wines.

Opaque, perfumed with fragrant black cherry, cassis and spice. Full bodied, intense with countless layers of flavour including blackcurrant, cedar and graphite. Dense fruit on the palate is bound by a structure of fine grained tannins and a lively acidity

Deep purple, almost opaque in colour with an expressive nose of black fruits, pepper, cinnamon, spice and violets. A seductive palate of dark hedgerow fruits, very open and welcoming with an explosion of fruit and spice. Mineral undertones.

Made from 100% Cinsault that's from a single site of black shciste in Espira. The vines are 130++ years old. The medium ruby-colored wine has pretty, juicy notes of cherries, dusty spice-box and dried flowers in a medium-bodied, delicious, charming style. Elegant, thrillingly mineral and very long.

Old vine Grenache grown on limestone, that produces something amazing. Ethereal, sublime and surprisingly fesh, this achieves a level of finesse akin to fine red Burgundy. Remarkable, special, very good.

100% Muscat d'Alexandre, fermented on skins (orange). Fermented dry, jasmine tea, crystallised fruit. A real one-off and only 800 btls made so super rare.

A blend of Genache Blanc, Gris and Noir, from ancient 90 year old vines, this is beautiful, racy, elegant wine that is softly textured and very ‘modern’ in its freshness and balance.

100% Carignan Gris that was raised in older barrels. It offers that classic cold steel-like character I always find in Carignan Gris, as well as plenty of citrus blossom and apple fruit, hints of oak and a medium-bodied, crisp profile

Natural, biodynamic and vegan. 50% each Grenache and Carignan from old vines, made without filtering or fining. Red fruit, cherries, juicy with a slightly earthy quality, almost carob-esque. Great drinking.

Plots older than 90 years Carignan on black schistous marl. Aged for 20 months in barrels.Notes of blueberries and spices, concentrated palate, fine and taut.

One of our best selling Rosés and it is easy to tell why when you open a bottle. The Trilogy in question are Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon and Cinsault, each of which brings its character to the whole. It's light, fruity, well balanced and easy to drink, so what are you waiting for?

A wonderful, natural Rose. Produced from very old vines of Cinsault, Grenache and Mourvedre (40/40/20) on ancient schist soils In Faugeres. Deep in colour, and with good presence, but certainly not a heavy style. Bright, clear red fruits with some spice and nice interest. That wonderful mineral freshness rounds things off nicely. Very complete and drinking nicely (this is a style that always benifits from the extra year in bottle). .

Natural Petit Verdot raised in amphora by vigneron Simon Bertschinger. The winery is based in Fos, but the vineyards are just south pf Faugeres in the clay foothills. Simon is doing some remarkabke stuff with some interesting grape varieties. Bright and vigourous but with depth and focus. Brilliant wine.

70 % Sangiovese, 30% Syrah, is amongst the very best in the Languedoc. Intense color, pretty aromas of white flowers. With a nice roundness, this wine will accompany your grilled fish, garnished summer salads, crustaceans etc.

Pale lemon gold with an explosive nose. Lovely flavours of apricot, peach and acacia blossom give way to an elegance and freshness balancing perfectly the richness of the grape.

Like a great Provence, but one from an actual great terroir and not just sandy soils In the words of one customer "“You’ll be pleased to know you weren’t wrong with that Rosé (Dom. des Soulanes Cuvee Rosé 2020 Cotes du Roussillon). It is one of the best I have ever tasted and I’ve tasted a few, many with a much bigger price tag. Actually I prefer it to Garrus (£100), d’Esclans (£30). How much more have you got?”"

100% Muscat d'Alexandre, fermented on skins (orange). Fermented dry, jasmine tea, crystallised fruit. A real one-off and hugely in-demand.

100% Carignan Gris that was raised in older barrels. It offers that classic cold steel-like character I always find in Carignan Gris, as well as plenty of citrus blossom, bright apple fruit - steely and penetrating. A real one-off. Utterly beautiful wine.

A blend of Genache Blanc, Gris and Noir, from ancient 90 year old vines, this is beautiful, racy, elegant wine that is softly textured and very ‘modern’ in its freshness and balance.

Natural, biodynamic and vegan. Grenache, Carignan and now (for the first time) Mourvedre from 80 year old vines, Made without filtering or fining. Pale but gorgeous mid red colour. At first on the nose, you are like "What even is that?". Whatever it is, you know that you like it. Elegant, subtle fruit is intermixed with gentle herb, earth and savoury charachters. Deep and wonderful. On the palate the wine is elegant and deep again, but not heavy in the slightest. Ruffled fruit and savoury notes with minerality and real finesse. These wines are like no other from the Roussillon. Outstanding. Full bottle 1,331 g. Unfiltered, unfined, no acidification, no chaptalisation. Spontaneous fermentation – Seb Danjou says, ‘We have always done spontaneous, my grandfather always did it. For me it is essential’. Since 2018 there is now a little bit of Mourvèdre (planted in 2007, next to La Truffière). The same vineyard as La Truffière blanc – mostly Grenache and Carignan. Old vines, around 90 years old. Élevage is in big foudre and the Mourvèdre in 500-litre barrels. Always 100% whole-bunch because they always have very ripe stalks (last time they destemmed was 2015). ‘We are not ayatollahs of whole bunch. It is not a dogma. I think it gives something to the wine, of course, but if the stems are not ripe, we will destem. We have to be careful.’ Colour is darker than 2018 but maceration is the same – between 15 and 25 days’ maceration, for the full length of the fermentation and then they press to barrel. No pigeage, no remontage (unless it’s a very cold year), no bâtonnage. Every day they draw a bucket of about 10 litres of juice off and pour it over the cap just to keep the cap wet and prevent oxidation. Infusion rather than maceration. There is a wild herb that grew in the Zimbabwean bush which we called ‘black jack’. Its leaves, crushed, gave out a pungent, sweet, bitter smell that was something of a mix of Thai basil, lovage, liquorice, fennel and coriander (cilantro). The smell of this wine reminds me of black jack, reminds me of crashing through the bush in summer heat, swatting mosquitoes and heading for that bald granite kopje. But the flint-flecked cranberry fruit, tart-sherbet-edged but sweetly ripe with that aciculate intensity that only rugged vines can bring, fills every corner of the palate and the bitter herbs become just a fine framework. I have a hard time getting my head around the fact that a Roussillon red can have the finesse of Vosne-Romanée. This wine has purity; it is, quite simply, diaphanous in texture. It is unique. It is has a beautiful soul. (TC) 13.5%

90 years Carignan on blackschistous marl. Aged for 20 months in barrels. Outstanding wine. JanicsRobinson.com 18/20: "This tastes of wild strawberries and forest mushrooms, caraway and fennel seeds. There is a daub of farmyard, but only enough to bring tang and animal warmth. White pepper woven into the delicate sweetness of the fruit. Not attention-seeking, but if you don’t give this wine your whole attention, you’ve lost something priceless. This is a Carignan in a million. (TC)" Rosemary George (2016 Vintage) "Pure Carignan. The vines are over ninety years old, grown on black schist and the wine is aged for 20 months in old oak barrels. Quite a deep colour. An initial natural edge on both the nose and palate, which disappears with air. Fresh red fruit on the nose and on the palate, it is quite tannic and structured, with an initial dryness. However, the wine evolves in the glass and the ripe fruit comes to the fore, with an elegant finish. 12.5°. One of those wines that keeps you guessing.

Energy is a word used a lot by the finest Roussillon growers. We don't think there has been a finer example than this extraordinary wine from the freres Danjou. Syrah from the Roussillon coming in at 11.5% abv. ANOTHER extraordinary wine. Don't miss.

Old vine Grenache grown on decomposed black schist with a limestone sub soil, that produces something amazing. Ethereal, sublime and surprisingly fesh, this achieves a level of finesse akin to fine red Burgundy. Remarkable, special, very good indeed. JancisRobinson.com 17.5/20: "Very pale. Very spicy. And very very perfumed. There is an old red rose called Mister Lincoln. It has the deep, velvet, classic perfume of a red rose. This wine smells like Mister Lincoln dusted in cardamom. It tastes of wild cherry, white pepper, pink peppercorns, Szechuan pepper, truffle and, more than anything else, rain on warm slate. Petrichor. Complex, yet almost exquisitely simple. No noise. No posturing. In one sip, you’re in this wild, beautiful vineyard, nothing but the sound of the wind through trees. Pure, transparent, yet so layered-upon-layered that you can read a thousand stories in one sip. A haiku of a wine. (TC)" 18/20 La Revue du Vins de France "There is a particular grace to this old vine Grenache grown on limestone, vinified (or rather infused) as a whole harvest, with ethereal and exciting florality, which contrasts without clashiing with a tight, deep frame, but also very delicate."

100% Carignan Gris that was raised in older barrels. It offers that classic cold steel-like character I always find in Carignan Gris, as well as plenty of citrus blossom, bright apple fruit - steely and penetrating. A real one-off. Utterly beautiful wine.
