“Fruit and spices!”
Aromas of ripe fruit and spices fill the mouth from the very first sip. These are followed by notes of blackberry, blueberry, and Mediterranean scrub. The finish is long-lasting, with herbal notes adding a touch of freshness. This wine offers lovely complexity and pairs well with a variety of red meat dishes.

Wine rated 90/100 (2020 vintage)
Winery rated 1 star (A high-quality, recommended wine that lives up to what one would expect from its appellation(s))
About the estate:
Founded in Vingrau in 2002 by Jacques Castany and Pascal Dieumidou, this winery received valuable guidance from the start from their neighbor Hervé Bizeul’s (Clos des Fées) oenologist. In 2004, its reputation took off thanks to Decanter magazine. However, even today, the two remain part-time winemakers, despite their 10 hectares under production. The winery, housed in an old garage, remains simple yet efficient. All of the wines are very well made, establishing the estate as a sure bet in the Roussillon region.

About the estate:
Jacques Castany worked in the transportation industry, and Pascal Dieunidou in IT. In 2002, they launched their winemaking venture in a tiny cellar. It has been a success, as evidenced by their already impressive track record. The 10-hectare vineyard is located in Vingrau, facing a spectacular cirque dominated by limestone.

Review by Mr. Gilles D. Published on June 13, 2025
Carrément Rouge reveals beautiful complexity and strikes the perfect balance between power and harmony. It unfolds with a full-bodied, smooth texture, generously endowed with captivating flavors of expressive red fruits, nuanced by spicy notes that complement the wine’s pronounced yet exceptionally refined and deliciously velvety tannins. The whole experience builds gracefully toward an intense finish, underscored by a mineral freshness that arrives just in time to channel the wine’s fiery character. Both authentic and modern, this Gem best savored slowly to accompany a beautiful, sun-kissed meal, such as Provençal-style stuffed tomatoes or Roussillon red lamb roasted with garrigue herbs. Rating: 4.4.
