Château Pech Redon - Les Cades 2019
16/20
Bettane & Desseauve
Exceptionally rich and indulgent, this cuvée is made from the Languedoc’s iconic grape varieties: Cinsault, Syrah, Grenache, and Carignan. It is a concentrated blend of black fruits and spices, vinified with whole berries to preserve the fruitiness and freshness. Pleasant and fruity, the palate is round and approachable in its youth, with a spicy finish featuring peppery notes. A pure delight with a touch of character!

Bettane & Desseauve
Wine rated (2020 guide) 16/20 (2018 vintage) (Very good wine)
Rated estate (2020 guide): 3 stars (High-quality production, setting the standard in its sector)
About the estate:
Christophe Bousquet is deeply in tune with nature on his vineyard, which receives little rainfall but which we consider to be the finest in La Clape. Perched on the heights of Gruissan, just a stone’s throw from Narbonne and a kilometer from the Mediterranean, Pech-Redon—with its 30 hectares grazed by sheep in winter and farmed to certified organic standards—has long produced the finest wines in the Clape region: the freshest and most complex. A tasting of the whites, particularly La Centaurée, is a must. Among the reds, La Centaurée stands apart with its distinctive style—a contemplative wine with very fine tannins, less opulent than Les Cades or L’Épervier. Christophe is increasingly favoring Mourvèdre, which thrives here particularly well because it overlooks the sea. The 2017 reds are very successful, and the 2018 vintage, tasted while still aging, will be no less impressive.
Guide Hachette des vins
Rated estate (2020 guide) Award-winning wines (This producer’s wines regularly receive awards from the guide)
About the estate:
A winding road leads to the highest point of the La Clape massif, the Coffre de Pech-Redon, which gives its name to the estate, located in the heart of the natural park. Christophe Bousquet has been cultivating his 30 hectares of vineyards there using organic farming methods since 1988.
RVF - La Revue du Vin de France / Guide des Meilleurs Vins de France
Rated estate (2020 guide) 1*Star (Up-and-coming stars or quality winemakers producing wines of a high standard—you won’t be disappointed when you taste the wines from these estates)
About the estate:
Christophe Bousquet is a dynamic and determined winemaker who strives—sometimes against the odds—to fly the flag for La Clape, a coastal region (it was once an island) with great potential. He has made the agronomic choice to practice organic viticulture and has gradually refined his winemaking and aging techniques, transforming his wines—once robust and high in alcohol—into more nuanced and balanced expressions. These are wines with a very distinct character, rooted in their terroir, and structured within a range that is now highly cohesive. This magnificent work, carried out under Herculean conditions in a region on the front lines of heatwaves and droughts, fully deserves the star we are awarding in this edition of the Green Guide.
