"This pleasant evocation of red fruit coulis, with a touch of blackberry, is carried by a lively, fine structure. A Banyuls with delicate fruitiness and discreet alcohol." (Le Guide des Meilleurs Vins de France 2019 - RVF) This 100% Grenache Noir, aged 15 months in oak barrels, will be the finishing touch to a fine meal, accompanying fresh ewe's milk and blue cheeses, or a chocolate dessert. A Roussillon delight!

Bettane & Desseauve
Domaine rated (2020 guide) 1*Star (A serious, recommendable production, in line with what one has the right to expect from its appellation(s))
About the domain :
Structured around a dozen parcels and as many hectares, this spectacular estate's vineyards are mainly planted on steep slopes of clay and schist overlooking the Mediterranean. It's an estate with a long tradition, but one that seems to be running out of steam in recent vintages.
Guide Hachette des vins
Domaine noté (guide 2022) Award-winning wines (The wines of this producer are regularly awarded by the guide)
About the domain :
Created in 1982, this 13-hectare estate brings together the vineyards of Vincent Cantié (in Collioure) and Christine Campadieu (in Banyuls), both from old winemaking families. The estate overlooks the sea on the heights of Collioure. It is a consistent producer of both vins doux naturels and vins secs.

RVF - La Revue du Vin de France / Guide des Meilleurs Vins de France
Wine rated (2019 guide) 15.5/20 + Favorite (Good wine)
Domaine noté (guide 2022) Sélectionné (We remind you that this guide is a prize list and as such, all the estates that appear in it, even without a star, represent, in our eyes, the excellence of French production).
About the wine:
This pleasant evocation of red fruit coulis, with a touch of blackberry, is carried by a lively, fine structure. A delicately fruity Banyuls with discreet alcohol.
About the domain :
Vincent Cantié is fully committed to the demanding viticulture of the Côte Vermeille. His aim is to translate the expression of the grapes (foremost among which are Grenache Noirs) planted on clay and schist into both dry and mature wines. The dry wines are now remarkably reliable, and the Banyuls always very successful.
