Rimage La Coume is a unique, must-have cuvée, well known to wine-lovers everywhere. Full of power and complexity, it comes from the estate's highest-quality terroir, on schist plots at an altitude of 350 meters, bathed in sunlight, where the Grenache Noir grape expresses itself wonderfully. A great terroir where everything comes together to produce the finest rimages. As Monsieur Parcé says, "enjoy now for its own sake, or keep jealously"!

Expert opinion
Guide des Vins Gault & Millau
Domain rated 2**Stars (Successful production)
About the domain :
Dr. Parcé had unquestionably left his mark on the estate and on the Banyuls appellation as a whole, based on its magnificent schist terroirs. The collioures, i.e. the dry wines produced in the same geographical area, have until now given a good idea of this terroir and its potential. The challenge for Jean-Michel Parcé, the son, is to maintain this high level of quality.
