2024 Dom Brial Cotes Catalanes Dom Ici Rouge Carignan

Producer Note

Dom Brial is a cooperative of passionate producers who are following the footsteps of Dom Brial, a Benedictine monk, who was born in Roussillon. Established in 1923, the winery was created with the philosophy of ‘Together We Are Stronger’, in response to the Phylloxera crisis that devastated many vineyards in the Roussillon. Today, the dynamic cooperative represents 247 winegrowers who cultivate the mosaic of diverse terroirs. Pioneers of sustainable development, Dom Brial covers 1,700 hectares which has been certified since 2007 as ‘Sustainable Winegrowing’ and they have been awarded the HVE Level 3 certification. The estate also includes 200 hectares of organically farmed vineyard. Dom Brial is also renowned for its fine wines from Château les Pins, located in the AOC Côtes du Roussillon Villages; a 28-hectare estate located in the heart of the village that was bequeathed by one of the growers to the winery. Dom Brial produces a range of traditional wines, which showcase this striking region.

Tasting Note

A supple and smooth Carignan showing ample notes of wild, dark red fruits and characteristic spice. Beautifully balanced with a silky texture and a long finish.
