Domaine Roc des Anges - Carignan 1903 2018
Domaine Roc des Anges is located in Latour-de-France, in Roussillon. It was created by Marjorie and Stéphane Gallet in 2001. Marjorie, from Grenoble, and Stéphane, from Normandy, met at the school of agronomy in Montpellier. Their two common passions, wine and horseback riding, sealed their relationship. They graduated in 2000 and settled in Roussillon where Marjorie worked for a time at Gérard Gauby. Stéphane takes over the technical management of a large estate in Maury. Marjorie then went in search of vines to create the estate and fell under the spell of a plot planted with Carignan on a vein of quartz in the locality of Roc Blanc. Stéphane joined her in 2008 and in turn found a plot in Maury which they would baptize "Terres de Fagayra" and which would be used to make their natural sweet wines. The vineyards of the two estates are certified biodynamic.
1903 is the first wine produced at the estate. It is made from Carignan vines planted in 1903 and cultivated on a schist terroir.
Grape variety: 100% Carignan
