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.
