Côtes du Ropussillon Villages Caramany Hints of blackberry, vanilla and melon on the nose. Huge blackberry flavours, also olive tapenade and bitter orange. Delicious with goat cheese!
Vin de Pays Des Côtes Catalanes "Full, fresh, dense and bright. The varietals are finely balanced, with a lemony finish and good minerality." "De di de la" means from here and there. A light and delicate blend, so easy to drink!
Côtes du Roussillon Strong & exotic nose, though pink it has a certain power. Fresh but full on the palette. Amazing length of spice and fruit. OUT OF STOCK AT THE VINEYARD awaiting 2016 vintage, bottling in 2017

Vin de Pays Des Côtes Catalanes "Full, fresh, dense and bright. The varietals are finely balanced, with a lemony finish and good minerality." "Lucioles" means Fireflies - the wine is picked during the night when it is cooler and the scene from the hill side is of a field filled with fireflies - as the pickers wear headlamps to harvest!
A fabulous way to build a business relationship or thank your clients.
