Description

"They have beautiful purity of fruit, impeccable balance and each release has their own unique character. At the prices, these are no-brainers." Robert Parker's - The Wine Advocate

"When it comes to quality-to-price ratios, no one does it better than proprietor Jean Marc Lafage. Located just outside of Perpignan, this estate has a wealth of old vines and vineyards to pull from, and the addition of a massive new winery is only going to give them even more control. While it’s easy to write off these value-priced releases as fruit bombs, please taste the wines! They have beautiful purity of fruit, impeccable balance and each release has their own unique character. At the prices, these are no-brainers." Robert Parker's - The Wine Advocate 2016

Awarded 5 Stars: Sam Kim, Wine Orbit

Awarded 92/100 Points: Robert Parkers, The Wine Advocate

'I’ve raved time and time again about the quality - and value - coming from Domaine Lafage’s Jean-Marc Lafage.' Robert Parker's The Wine Advocate

'A crazy value, the 2014 IGP Cotes Catalanes Tessellae Carignan Vieilles Vignes is one of the best examples of this variety from the Roussillon, and the fact that it sells for a song is just icing on the cake for the consumer. Coming all from schist soils and 70-year-old vines, raised 12 months in a mix of concrete tanks and demi-muids, it offers tons of black raspberry and black cherry fruit, licorice and dried spices to go with a super sexy, heady, seamless style on the palate that keeps you coming back to the glass. Drink this blockbuster over the coming 2-3 years.'

"When it comes to quality-to-price ratios, no one does it better than proprietor Jean Marc Lafage" Robert Parker's - The Wine Advocate

"A gorgeous syrah and grenache blend, the lifted nose shows dark berry, raspberry, floral and smoked meat characters. It is generous and flavoursome on the palate, and delivers loads of tasty flavours, finishing long and succulent. The wine offers delectable fruit flavours with a warm spicy finish. At its best: now to 2017." Sam Kim, Wine Orbit
