With its beautiful deep garnet color, this blend of Syrah, Carignan, and Grenache from hillside vineyards offers aromas of jammy red fruits. On the palate , it is supple and concentrated, supported by high-quality yet very rounded tannins. A mouthwatering wine—a guaranteed delight!

About the estate:

All that remains of the medieval fortress of the Lords of Oupia are sections of wall—remnants of the outer walls—and a tower. In 1860, Romain Iché purchased the château, which passed to his grandson André in 1970. André undertook the renovation of the estate and the cellar, transforming the property into a benchmark for the Minervois appellation. He passed away in 2007, leaving his life’s work to his daughter Marie-Pierre.
