The estate and the wine
The estate and the wine Le Roc des Anges is a flagship estate in the Roussillon region and one of our favorite addresses there. For more than twenty years, Marjorie and Stéphane Gallet have been producing biodynamic and high quality wines, full of character, strength and elegance, which majestically reflect the mineral qualities of their terroir. These wines express the places which forged their spirit!
Wine Made from old Carignan vines planted on schist between 1911 and 1944, the 2021 Red IGP Côtes Catalanes Reliefs is a full and deep wine, which provides an insight into the fascinating world of old vines. The notes of black fruits, olive, laurel, macerated and candied fruits melt a full and tasty palate, with a good character. A very nice full and tasty wine, already ready to drink after some decanting.
Vinification Hand harvested, vinification in whole grains and whole bunches, with indigenous yeasts and fermentation in concrete tanks. Aged in barrels and concrete vats for 10 months, then 7 months in bottles.

Organic and Biodynamic wine, certified.
