Tasting notes : "Its richness can be felt from the first nose, the mouth extends this feeling by a generous matter enveloping fine tannins of a beautiful mass of fruit."

CDR-Villages Roaix red L’As du Pique 2021, beautiful garnet color, a wine with the persistent scent of morello cherry and ripe blackcurrant, well typified, full-bodied and fragrant on the palate, of beautiful frame, it is generous and combines structure and roundness in the mouth, to be expected on a necklace of lamb with ginger. 90/100
CDR-Villages Roaix white L’Atout du Pique 2020, marked by its white Grenache, very well aged (vinification half in half barrels and half in stainless steel tanks, fermentation for three months and then aging on lees without stirring), this wine is specific with its pear and anise nuances, fresh and suave, round finish, which combines intensity and flexibility, to be expected on zucchini fritters or fried cod with potatoes. 91/100
CDR-Villages Roaix rosé L’Ambigu 2022, from vines of 45 years of age with yield of 40 hl/ ha, which took root on a sandy soil resulting from the erosion of saffron, nose present with notes of violet and prune, a wine rich in color, dense and a beautiful aromatic persistence in the final. 89/100

Rasteau red 2020, majority in Grenache, the rest in Mourvèdre, clay-limestone soil, a wine of character, powerful, intense in the nose as in the mouth (blackcurrant, garrigue, liquorice), with coated tannins. 92/100
