La Pinède is a cuvée made mainly from Grenache (65%), giving it a delicious, round and generous character. Mourvèdre provides structure, but it remains supple, with silky tannins. A cuvée that can be enjoyed young, with concentrated, vibrant fruit and a hint of menthol to add complexity and length on the palate. Well worth discovering!

Bettane & Desseauve
Rated estate (2020 guide) 1*Star (A serious, recommendable production, in line with what one would expect from its appellation(s))
About the estate:
Structured into a dozen plots covering as many hectares, this estate's spectacular vineyard is mainly planted on steep clay and schist slopes overlooking the Mediterranean. It is a property with a long tradition, but one that seems to have lost momentum in recent vintages.
Guide Hachette des vins
Rated estate (2022 guide) Award-winning wines (This producer's wines are regularly recognized by the guide)
About the estate:
Created in 1982, this 13-hectare estate brings together the vineyards of Vincent Cantié (in Collioure) and Christine Campadieu (in Banyuls), both from old winegrowing families. The estate overlooks the sea from the heights of Collioure. It produces wines of consistent quality, both sweet and dry.

Wine rating (2021 guide) 88/100 (2018 vintage)
Rated estate (2022 guide) Selected (Please note that this guide is a ranking and, as such, all the estates listed in it, even those without stars, represent, in our opinion, the excellence of French production.)
About the estate:
Vincent Cantié is wholeheartedly committed to the demanding viticulture of the Côte Vermeille. He seeks to express, in both dry and fortified wines, the character of the grapes (primarily Grenache Noir) grown on clay and schist soils. The dry wines are now remarkably reliable and the Banyuls wines are consistently excellent.
