Domaine des Soulanes - "Salines" 2022 - Maury sec (Bio)
"Les Salines is a plot-based Maury that brings out the full-bodied Grenache and notes of blackberry and candied strawberry. Well-balanced on the palate, it whets the appetite". (Le Guide des Meilleurs Vins de France 2022 - RVF) A fine representative of its appellation!
"What lovely notes of blackberry, blackcurrant and plum, with a hint of button mushroom and garrigue. After an attack balanced between sweetness and freshness, the mid-palate is crisp, evocative of burlat cherry." Guide Hachette des Vins 2022
Cathy and Daniel Laffite set up Domaine des Soulanes in 2002, on plots of land that had been farmed organically since 1972. The estate is located in the commune of Tautavel, in the Maury production area. It lies in a natural corridor surrounded by scrubland, at the foot of the rocky peaks of the last Cathar stronghold, the Château de Quéribus. Its name comes from the geographical term ‘soulane’ meaning a hillside facing south-south-east.
