Michel Chapoutier's Roussillon outpost continues to turn out multiple cuvées of very good to excellent quality. The larger-production stuff offers excellent value, while the single-parcel selections—produced in quantities as small as 127 cases (the 2019 Coullioure Chrysopée)—can rival some of the wines Chapoutier produces at home in the Northern Rhône.
A blend of 55% Syrah and 45% Grenache, the 2021 Cotes du Roussillon Villages is composed mostly of purchased wine. Aged in concrete and stainless steel, it's cherry-scented but more savory on the medium-bodied palate, with undertones of dusty earth and dried spices, finishing with soft tannins. JOE CZERWINSKI, The Wine Advocate
The plots for this wine are located on the slopes of the high Agly Valley. They are composed of gneiss and schist from the Devonian Period with calcareous clay and the combo of elevation and porr mineral soil provide a wonderful freshness and vibrancy. This has the perfect combo rustic charm you expect from the region with a modern and pure styling. Stupendous value for the money here.
Starting in the Southern Rhone and heading west to the sunny coasts of the Mediterranean and through the beautiful Roman town of Nimes. This juicy and crunchy number is a delight.
