"A true gourmet rosé, with intense aromas and a well-rounded minerality"

Alba, known as “Aude” in Occitan, embodies the essence of a plot of old Grenache Gris vines. This delicate rosé, crafted in the style of a white wine, is intense, with a subtle bouquet and an impressive finish—making it the perfect pairing for grilled fish.

Rated estate (2026 guide): 3*Stars (High-quality production that serves as a benchmark in its sector)

About the estate:

Pierre Bories has elevated his family estate to the pinnacle of the Corbières appellation and has managed it masterfully since 2001, demonstrating the same determination and high standards in the vineyards as he does in the cellar. Comprising a vast estate of 150 hectares (including the former terroir of Château des Ollieux), located about ten kilometers from Narbonne, the vineyard produces wines of great elegance, ranging from the Prestige cuvée to the Or cuvée, all the way to Atal-Sia, produced under the Corbières-Boutenac appellation—undoubtedly one of the estate’s crown jewels. The entire range is of consistent quality, propelling this estate among our favorites in the region; this long-standing consistency more than justifies the third star we have awarded it.

Rated Estate: Award-Winning Wines (This producer's wines regularly receive awards from the guide)

About the estate:

Founded in 1860 in the Boutenac region, this extensive family-owned vineyard—originally a dependency of Fontfroide Abbey—has remained in the same family ever since. As early as 1896, it had a cellar and a barrel room built with stone from the estate’s quarry. Jacqueline and François Bories revived the estate in the 1980s, joined in 2001 by their son Pierre. Cultivated without herbicides or pesticides, the vineyard—currently in the process of converting to organic farming—covers 65 hectares.

Rated Estate (2026 Guide) Selected (Please note that this guide is a ranking, and as such, all the estates listed here—even those without a star—represent, in our view, the pinnacle of French winemaking.)

About the estate:

Pierre Bories took over this vast family estate, which was expanded in 2006 to include the neighboring vineyard, Les Ollieux. It features a wonderful diversity of terroirs, ranging from clay-limestone and rounded pebbles to the Boutenac terroir (red sandstone and limestone), where the estate has established itself as a must-visit. It is above all the character of the Boutenac wines that captivates us. Almost the entire vineyard is pruned using the gobelet method to better protect the grapes. Always brimming with ideas, Pierre has completely renovated the estate and created La Touketa, a dining and tasting area in the heart of the vineyards, open during the season. For the past three years, the winemaker has also owned Château Rives Blanques in Limoux.

Wine rated (2024 guide) 17/20

About the wine:

Like the Classique Rosé, this wine is exceptionally pure and bursting with fruit, though it is slightly less exuberant. It exhibits a subtle minerality reminiscent of chalk, as well as hints of dried thyme and sage on the finish. Notes of orange, especially on the finish. Graceful.

Very disappointing. Lacks body and aroma, with excessive acidity.

Review by Mr. GILLES D. Published on May 5, 2024

For its part, the Rosé Prestige is already a benchmark in the Languedoc region. Sensual and delicate, the Alba cuvée, meanwhile, expresses itself in a different vein, marked by sensuality and delicacy. With a minerality enveloped in a bouquet of vibrant red fruits, its full-bodied texture delivers a soft, silky, almost milky sensation on the palate, lingering slowly before giving way to an unforgettable finish that is both powerful and elegant, with hints of mint and a touch of lemon zest. A beautiful rosé for gourmet dining, pairing perfectly with oven-roasted red mullet from the Côte Vermeille on a bed of tomatoes and onions, served with a Collioure anchovy sauce.
