Collioure
The small Collioure vineyard lies between the Mediterranean Sea and the Pyrenees mountain range in the south of the Pyrénées-Orientales department, in the communes of Collioure, Port Vendres, Banyuls and Cerbère. The appellation area merges with that of Banyuls and Banyuls Grand Cru, in the communes of Collioure, Port-Vendres, Banyuls and Cerbère. Only around 640 hectares of the appellation's 1,700 are devoted to the production of AOC Collioure, for an annual output of around 19,000 hectolitres, which since 2003 has been available in three colors: white, rosé and red (with red accounting for 70% of production).

Set in a vast amphitheatre facing the sea, the vineyards of Collioure wines are made up of small terraces held back by almost 6,000 kilometers of dry stone walls, fashioned over centuries by generations of winegrowers. The slopes, with gradients of up to 40%, rest on the bedrock of Cambrian brown shale. This terroir is perfectly reflected in the wines produced by Domaine Coume del Mas, Domaine de la Rectorie, Cave de l'Abbé Rous and Domaine du Mas Blanc.

In the white Collioure wines, grapes from old Grenache gris vines, along with Grenache blanc, give these terroir wines their full potential. This new grand du sud is perfectly suited to the richness of Mediterranean produce. The early bottling of rosés preserves their freshness and aromatic intensity. These are rosés of character, structured, powerful and full-bodied. Red wines, made from Grenache Noir, Syrah, Mourvèdre and Carignan Noir, can only be marketed from July 1 following the harvest, but the vast majority of winemakers age their wines for a year or more. Collioure wines are fleshy, warm, concentrated and tannic, and will improve in bottle for many years.

"The whites are of a very high standard (RVF)".

"A blend of Grenache gris (80%), Grenache blanc and Vermentino, this limpid, pale-yellow white reveals intense aromas of exotic fruit and brioche. These aromas are prolonged by a fresh, lively, delicate and long palate. A well-balanced wine to accompany a sea bass with fennel". (Le Guide Hachette 2024)

"With its very Mediterranean blend, this Collioure is more sea-oriented."

Its freshness is reminiscent of sea spray, and its notes of garrigue and black fruits make it a perfect match for fish. Its texture makes it a perfect accompaniment to roasted meats, and its silky tannins mean it can be kept for up to ten years. A real pleasure!

"A solid wine you can keep!"

Another great Collioure! Quadratur expresses wild herbs, garrigue and ripe black fruit on the nose and palate. Complex and dense, it's a smooth cuvée with supple tannins and a velvety finish that goes on and on. A wine to cellar a little longer before opening.

"Unveils a floral bouquet of vine blossom and citrus notes".

"This 100% Grenache Gris, born on schist, vinified and aged in oak barrels, made a strong impression. Its attractive, brilliant, limpid pale color, its elegant nose of vanilla, lemon and fresh butter, and above all its full, round, fresh and very fine palate, with admirable length. A racy white, to be reserved for a choice dish, a truffled scallop tartar for example". (Le Guide Hachette 2024)

"Sine Nomine but not without personality, far from it. This deep, brilliant Collioure, with its lovely coppery highlights, delivers a complex, intense nose of stewed red and black fruits, white pepper, licorice and cocoa. The palate, in unison with the bouquet, appears ample, dense and rich, backed by elegant, silky tannins and a fine freshness that gives it renewed vigor on the finish. Already harmonious, this wine has not said its last word". (Le Guide Hachette 2024)
