Winemaker:

A seventh-generation vigneron, Matthieu Barret studied viticulture in Beaune before joining his grandfather in Cornas in 1997. After inheriting a parcel of vines from his grandfather, who used to sell grapes to the local co-operative, Matthieu built up his own domaine in this famed Rhône appellation. He immediately began working the vines organically and produced his first vintage in 2000.

Tasting Notes:

This is an intense wine with aromas of black olive, ripe red fruits and fragrant Provençal herbs on the nose, with an impressive fruit concentration and a mineral freshness on the palate.
