“The 2013 reds are authentic and well-balanced: Reliefs, with its more southern character and spicy notes, has gripping tannins. ” (The Guide to the Best Wines of France 2015 - RVF). A very intense and complex Côtes du Roussillon Villages, with spicy and vanilla notes; full-bodied on the palate yet refined and deliciously mineral, offering pronounced tannins that promise long-term aging potential. A modern and authentic wine!

Rated estate (2024 guide): 4*Stars (Producers of the very highest quality, the pride of French viticulture)

About the estate:

Luminous. That’s surely the adjective that best describes Roc des Anges, both in terms of the style of the wines and the modern, aesthetically pleasing winery built by Marjorie and Stéphane Gallet. They built their estate from the ground up, and today it spans 45 hectares under production. These wines are highly drinkable, with relatively low alcohol content for the region; careful viticulture and a well-timed harvest ensure the wines never feel heavy. Biodynamic farming accounts for part of this uniqueness in the Roussillon region, as does the very distinctive terroir of Montner—featuring very fine schist that behaves like sand. This estate consistently delivers some of the most delightful dry wines in the entire department.
