Las Trabasseres, qui signifie en catalan « le chemin qui longe la montagne, à flanc de coteau », est issu d'une parcelle de Carignan plantée en 1913. Un rouge souple et harmonieux offrant de belle notes de fruits frais, des nuances florales, avec beaucoup de distinction. Un vin bien concentré, puissant et complexe, dans un millésime des plus réussis !

About the domain :
Luminous. This is surely the adjective that best describes Le Roc des Anges, as much for the style of the wines as for Marjorie and Stéphane Gallet's modern, aesthetic winery. They created their estate from scratch, and today cover 45 hectares in production. Their wines are highly drinkable, low in alcohol for the region, and their careful viticulture and intelligent harvest date avoid any heaviness in the wines. Biodynamic viticulture explains some of this originality for Roussillon, as does the very special terroir of Montner, with its fine schist that behaves like sand. This estate regularly produces some of the finest dry wines in the whole department.
