“A very exclusive vintage”

"Where the Sun Rises 2023" comes from a vineyard plot known to the village elders as THE plot that produces the finest wines. Complex and elegant, the nose combines aromas of blackberry jam, peony, and raspberry, intertwined with herbaceous notes. The elegant palate, with beautiful density, offers a refined texture thanks to the extreme finesse of the tannins. A seductively balanced IGP Côtes Catalanes red wine!

About the estate:

Hervé Bizeul, a winemaker and maverick writer, has little left to prove, as his estate ranks among the elite of Roussillon. Yet this does not stop him from constantly challenging himself, exploring new avenues, innovating, thinking outside the box, and creating new vintages. A prime example is his Pinot Noir, which came out of nowhere and bravely withstands the harsh sun and the Tramontane winds of the Agly Valley. Here, each cuvée displays a personality all its own, sometimes uncompromising, just like its winemaker. From no fewer than seven different terroirs emerges a serious and diverse interpretation of Roussillon. A model of its kind.
