"A mosaic of old vine plots

Cuvée Relief is a blend of small plots of old vines, each bringing its own identity to the wine. Its depth and length are perfect, a red with plenty of chewiness that lets you discover the typicity of old vines. A perfect accompaniment to long-cooked lamb confit.

Bettane & Desseauve

Wine rated 95/100 (Vintage 2021)

Domaine rated (guide 2024) 4*Stars (Top-quality producers, the glories of French winegrowing)

About the domain :

Luminous. This is surely the adjective that best describes Le Roc des Anges, as much for the style of the wines as for Marjorie and Stéphane Gallet's modern, aesthetic winery. They created their estate from scratch, and today cover 45 hectares in production. Their wines are highly drinkable, low in alcohol for the region, and their careful viticulture and intelligent harvest date avoid any heaviness in the wines. Biodynamic viticulture explains some of this originality for Roussillon, as does the very special terroir of Montner, with its fine schist that behaves like sand. This estate regularly produces some of the finest dry wines in the whole department.
