Made from 100% Carignan grapes, this red offers delicate aromas of red and black fruits on the nose. Fresh on the palate, with a lovely finish. An excellent companion to a good leg of lamb...

Expert opinion
Guide Hachette des vins
Domaine noté (guide 2023) Award-winning wines (The wines of this producer are regularly awarded by the guide)
About the domain :
Before setting up his own business in 2002, Daniel Laffite spent 15 years working for a large estate that had been organically farmed since 1972. He then bought part of the property and set up his own winery. Today, he manages 17 ha with his wife Cathy.

RVF - La Revue du Vin de France / Guide des Meilleurs Vins de France
Rated wine (guide 2023) 92/100 (Vintage 2020)
Domaine rated (guide 2023) 1*Star (Stars in the making or quality winemakers with a good level of production, you won't be disappointed when you taste the wines from these estates)
About the domain :
Domaine des Soulanes was created in 2002 by Cathy and Daniel Laffite, in the Maury area. The couple had previously worked these same terroirs for over ten years, alongside the previous owner, before acquiring part of the property. The vineyards lie at the foot of the rocky peaks dominated by Château de Queribus. The estate's wines express themselves in a fleshy yet fair, energetic and intense style.
