Domaine Saint Daumary - Pic Saint-Loup L'Asphodèle 2023
3*Coup de Coeur
Hachette
"Irresistibly seductive!"
"A Favorite three stars: this wine, aged in vats and jars, with 20% Grenache added to the Syrah, is close to perfection. No wood, then, but fruit, in a very juicy version, centered on blackcurrant coulis and just enhanced with Zan. A perfectly plump body, a silky texture, tannins that melt into the whole and, as always, that delicious, very pure fruitiness that is almost irresistible. We bow down." (Le Guide Hachette 2026).

Rated estate (2026 guide) 1*Star (A serious, recommendable production, in line with what one would expect from its appellation(s))
About the estate:
Julien Chapel runs this discreet estate in Valflaunès, which often flies under the radar. We had the opportunity to taste the range this year and must admit we were surprised by the depth of texture in the reds. We will be conducting a more detailed tasting next year, but in the meantime, be sure to try these exceptional reds from the appellation.

About the estate:
Julien Chapel was the youngest winemaker in Languedoc when he started out. He took over his father's vineyards in 1999 at the age of just nineteen and left the cooperative winery. The vineyard (20 hectares) is organically farmed.
