"Roc d'Anglade rouge 2021 is reminiscent of the Northern Rhône, with its strong imprint of black pepper, blackberry and violets. It benefits from the freshness of the vintage to express all the tension, elegance and energy of its terroir and dominant grape variety, Carignan." (Le Guide RVF 2024). Limited quantities available!

About the wine:

About the domain :
Rémy Pédréno and his wife Martine have been running this 9-hectare estate on the historic Langlade terroir since 1999. Having previously worked in the northern Rhône region, notably for Domaine Rostaing, this passionate winemaker from Nîmes quickly established himself among the region's greats, producing elegant, taut, airy wines from this marl-limestone terroir that has been renowned for centuries. Aging in tuns and a more precise management of the lees have taken this estate to a new level, and it is now an undisputed benchmark. Jeremy Stevenson joins Martine and Rémy from New Zealand, Alsace, Chile and Oregon.
