Vent d'Est
The nose stands out for its intense notes of rose and coriander. The palate is just as fresh, with an anaesthetic effect brought by the spicy touches. Exceptional value for money, provided you wait at least 3 years in bottle...
Also marked by Syrah, Vent d'Est is spicy with notes of violet. The still dense mouthfeel and drying finish indicate that it will need to develop a patina with a year in the bottle.
Aged 24 months in demi-muids.
A deep garnet colour, this wine surprises with its exceptional aromas of truffle, lilac, liquorice and violet, but also cocoa beans, spices and garrigue.
The palate is fresh and racy, with a fine and elegant body and a silky finish.
Drink at 16-18°C, open at least 1 hour before serving, decanting can only do it good. Will accompany elaborate and complex dishes or hard cheeses.
Peak: 2022 - 2027
The Cabardès is a dream terroir with a varied geology, situated in the west of the Languedoc and south of the Massif Central, a balance between east and west, sun and coolness, garrigue and mountain. The grapes are harvested by hand on these clay-limestone slopes on the southern slopes of the Montagne Noire, situated at an altitude of 300 metres.
The Grenache and Cabernet are destemmed and put into vats for about four weeks. The Syrah is vinified in whole bunches. The blending of the different grape varieties starts about 10 months after the harvest.

The Estate Cabrol
"Le domaine de Cabrol est un incontournable dans le paysage de Cabardès. Perché à 350 mètres d'altitude, ce terroir de montagne offre un paysage luxuriant, assez rare en Languedoc.
Au milieu des 120 hectares de terres, on trouve ici et là des vignes en coteaux et en terrasse. Le vignoble de 20 ha est sous la main de Nicolas Carayol, qui assure la continuité familiale tout en installant une touche plus moderne et audacieuse dans les vins, à l'instar de la sympathique cuvée Blue Note.
On retrouve une majorité de vins rouges, avec une cuvée en blanc, une très belle réussite (grenache, chenin et manseng). Professeur d'économie à Bordeaux, Nicolas a décidé d'ouvrir ce lieu aux visiteurs : un espace événementiel voit le jour à l'été 2023 et des chambres avec piscine sont en projet." RVF Guide
