Description
WINEMAKER: Jean-Francois Coutelou
REGION: Languedoc, FR
VARIETAL: Grenache, Syrah
VITICULTURE: Organic
"Grenache is whole-bunch fermented (i.e. sort of semi-carbonic maceration), whilst the Syrah is pressed before fermentation. As with pretty much every Mas Coutelou wine, the aromas jump out of the glass, the flavours are lush and lithe, think sweet raspberry, redcurrant and blackberry, countered by sour red cherry and soft citrus, and again a hint of exotic spice - all of which adds up to a wonderfully fresh and tangy wine, of genuine depth, complexity and elegance. Lovely!" - Andrew Guard
Today Jean Francois farms 14 hectares of vines, as well as a few hundred olive trees that protect his vines from his neighbors farming methods.. His father planted the first vines back in 1966 and was one of the pioneers of organic viticulture in the Hérault, when there were just seven organic wine growers in the entire department, today the estate is registered with 'Nature et Progrès'.

Come curious. Leave with a new favourite.
We don’t tell you what to drink. You don’t need to know your varietals, regions or vintages, and you certainly don’t need to pretend you do. Tell us what you like, hate, what you’ve tried or curious about — we’ll take it from there. Sometimes the best bottle is the one you didn’t know you wanted.
