From a terroir of rounded pebbles and a deep red color with ruby highlights, the estate's Cuvée Tradition boasts a spicy, smoky nose with accents of red fruit and candied morello cherry. A Corbières with silky, ripe tannins on the palate, with aromas of blackcurrant and cherry, and a lovely long finish. An ideal accompaniment to a fine piece of red meat, for example...

Domaine noté (guide 2021) Award-winning wines (The wines of this producer are regularly awarded by the guide)
About the domain :
To the northwest of Lézignan-Corbières, a vast estate (180 ha) focused on exports, acquired in 1987 by Anne-Marie and Guilhem Durand. A first in Languedoc-Roussillon. In 2015, it was the first in Languedoc to pass into the hands of a Chinese group, the importer BHC International Wine Assets Management. Close to the Minervois region, the vineyard is set on an ancient terrace of the Aude, rich in rolled pebbles.
