A high-calibre rosé, with a fruity nose and notes of spice and garrigue... Palate: full-bodied, with a lot of freshness and drinkability, and a spicy finish.
Maxime Magnon
Maxime Magnon: simply put, it’s he who restored the image of the Corbières appellation. Burgundy-born, in his forties, he’s worked in Villeneuve-les-Corbières since 2002. But before that, Maxime studied and trained at length alongside many of the greats: Thierry Allemand, Thierry Valette, Selosse... At his estate of around 12 hectares, the environment is respected, chemicals are banned, and cows and other animal helpers tend to the weeding and enrich the soils in the winter. His idea for animals in the vineyard came from a good friend and colleague Didier Barral. As for vinification, Magnon is of the Beaujolais school – whole cluster, carbonic maceration, low temperature, no additives, low sulphur at bottling, etc.… His juice is clean and precise, gourmand, and eminently drinkable. Wines of rare elegance for this appellation which has finally found its figurehead.
A nose characteristic of the estate’s wines, with notes of strawberry, spices and thyme... Palate: fruity and easy drinking, a wine with strong identity, structure, volume and minerality… yet another faultless performance, Monsieur Maxime!
An exuberant Grenache, fruity and ultra floral... Palate: very fragrant juice, balanced, with lovely tension, and a saline finish. A wine at once powerful and complex.
On notes of white fruits, lots of pear and peach, enhanced with citrus fruits. Palate: a beautiful fat and roundness balanced by a fine acidity, subtle minerality, long and lemony finish.

A great Carignan, full of fruit and spice... Palate: incredible texture, this is velvety juice, smooth, easy drinking, and explosively fruity!

It’s the estate’s most exclusive cuvée, a wine Maxime made for his daughter... A delicate wine, yet with body and spice... Palate: a massive, stately wine crafted to be forgotten a time deep in your cellar... As you’d expect – this is a cuvée for our children!
The typicity of Grenache is super present on the nose, with notes of strawberry and raspberry jam, a touch of rose and cranberry. The palate is also very aromatic and fruity, vibrant, low tannins. What a success!
