Winery notes (2022 Vintage)
"This very first cuvée without added sulfites is the result of Catherine Delaunay and her team’s desire to explore new vinification techniques and innovate to meet consumer demand for more natural products. The result? A wine with intense, pure aromas and flavours but with MINIMALIST* packaging!

The majority of the Syrah and Grenache grapes come from the slopes of the Orb Valley, north of Béziers. The vines are planted in soil that overlies calcareous clay basalt streaks. This higher-altitude terroir, where the nights are cool, lends velvety tannins, roundness and richness to the wines it yields. The rest of the grapes come from the foothills of the Montagne Noire, in the northern Minervois, where the vines grow in predominantly limestone soil.

The Les Jamelles sulfite-free Syrah-Grenache features deep red colour with bluish nuances. The nose is expressive and intense, with primary aromas of fruit (cherry) along with black cherry coulis. Slight hints of vanilla and spices (paprika/bacon, pepper) can also be perceived. The olfactory persistence is very appealing. This wine offers a nice, fresh palate that is spicy and fruity (fresh cherry), with notes of liquorice and a touch of minerality. It boasts perfect balance between elegant, well-integrated tannins and pleasing freshness. This sulfite-free method of vinification and ageing allows for intense, distinct expression of the fruit."


91/100 Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, October 2023 (2021 Vintage)
"Youthfully expressed and fragrant, showing Black Doris plum, sweet raspberry, dried herb and floral aromas, it's juicy and fleshy in the mouth delivering bright fruit flavours with a finely dry finish. At its best: now to 2025."

91/100 Cameron Douglas MS, December 2022 (2021 Vintage)
"A core bouquet of fleshy red berry fruits, crushed strawberry, a wisp of carbonic floral scents, fresh black berry and simple mineral highlights. Lush and plush textures touch the palate first with a core of dark red plums and old strawberry, the tannins layer in a chalky texture and acidity heightens the crispness and youthful qualities. Balanced and well made, little to no oak so can be chilled or served cool at cellar temperature. Best drinking from 2023 through 2026+."
