Description
In a nutshell:
This southern French red is a stonker - all the sunshine of the Roussillon without the holiday hangover.
The lowdown:
This French Catalan red is a real burst of sunshine. Imagine a basket overflowing with ripe raspberries and blackberries, a hint of peppery spice tickling your nose. On the tongue, it's incredibly soft and friendly - like running your hand over sun-warmed velvet. This beauty hails from the high slopes of Roussillon, where Grenache, Syrah, and Carignan vines soak up the Mediterranean sun. Hand-picked grapes, a touch of careful winemaking, and voila. A wine that's fresh and fruity, with that delightful spice and those soft, smooth tannins. It's the kind of red that makes you want to kick back on the patio, close your eyes, and sigh with simple pleasure.
The Producer:
Michel Chapoutier's reach extends into the sunny Roussillon, where Domaine de Bila-Haut nestles in Latour-de-France. This southern outpost benefits from Chapoutier's meticulous approach. Here, ancient vines and their low yields concentrating flavour in the grapes. Grenache, Syrah and Carignan bask in the sunshine, while north-facing slopes and cooling winds add a touch of elegance to the white blend. For reds, schist and gneiss soils give rise to structured, characterful wines that embody the spirit of the Roussillon. Chapoutier clearly has a knack for finding hidden gems, and Domaine de Bila-Haut shines as one of them.
When to drink:
Chill this juicy, peppery red for a summer barbecue, or enjoy with a slow-cooked casserole in the winter.
