Description

The wines are jaw-dropping good. In addition, they're ridiculously under-priced given their quality.- Robert Parker's The Wine Advocate

I struggle to think of another portfolio that encompasses anywhere close to this level of value, and the average quality to price (QPR) for these wines is just hard to believe. - Robert Parker's The Wine Advocate

Deeply coloured and richly fruited, this is an impressive red from the Southern France. It's filled with blackberry, dark plum, floral and spice notes on the nose, leading to a succulent palate that's generous and flavoursome. The wine offers fleshy mouthfeel of syrah and perfume and silky texture of grenache, making it immensely appealing. A gorgeous modern rendition. At its best: now to 2018. Sam Kim

A blend of 80% Grenache and 20% Syrah that was aged in 10% new barrels. The previous vintage was rated 92/100 by the hugely influential publication Robert Parker's The Wine Advocate.

Saint Roch  is owned and run by the talented Jean-Marc and Eliane Lafage, from their cellar located just outside of Perpignan, this estate includes vineyards spread throughout the Roussillon, allowing them to make the most of the diverse terroirs and micro-climates.
