Hachette
90/100
James Suckling
A deep, dark color that reveals ripe black fruits (blackcurrant, blueberry, blackberry) right from the first sniff, followed by a burst of spices and Mediterranean scrub (pepper, cinnamon, licorice, thyme, rosemary). On the palate, it offers ripe fruit and a velvety texture. A bottle that truly embodies the Roussillon!

Guide Hachette des vins
Wine noted (guide 2024) 2* Stars (Vintage 2021) (Remarkable wine)
Rated estate (2020 guide) Award-winning wines (This producer’s wines regularly receive awards from the guide)
About the estate:
South of Perpignan, Charles Perez has been running his estate since 2008 in the hamlet of Nyls, in the Aspres region: 25 hectares of organic vineyards spread across three hills within a 110-hectare estate. For his reds, his blends highlight Syrah. This leading figure in the wine region is “sketched” by a different artist each year to illustrate his labels. The same goes for his family members. The Catalan Mouton Rothschild, so to speak!
