From vineyard to bottle

The origin, grapes and craftsmanship behind this wine.

One of the best-selling wines from Domaine Lafage, which has been actively producing wine for over two centuries. Currently, the sixth generation is at the helm; it remains a family business. This Lafage Authentique Cotes du Roussillon showcases the best that Roussillon, the home of Domaine Lafage, has to offer. Local grape varieties thrive in the perfect Mediterranean climate. Domaine Lafage boasts an impressive 140 hectares of vineyards. Jean-Marc, the current owner, believes in planting the right grapes in the right terroir. This results in the exceptionally high quality of Domaine Lafage's wines, which win numerous awards year after year!

As the name suggests, this wine reflects the authenticity of the Roussillon region. Three characteristic grape varieties—Carignan (50%), Syrah (40%), and Grenache (10%)—create a beautiful blend. The Syrah provides the necessary power, while the Carignan and Grenache lend fruit and aroma to Lafage Authentique Cotes du Roussillon. After vinification, 20% of the juice is lightly aged in oak for at least 10 months. This gives Lafage Authentique Cotes du Roussillon a little more power.

Surprisingly powerful and full of flavor. We were almost taken aback. The oak aging, combined with the robust Syrah, works wonders. Lafage Authentique Cotes du Roussillon is a delight for both the nose and palate. You smell blackberries and other dark fruits. A distinct peppery note reveals itself. A floral note of violets is present as soon as you swirl the red wine in the glass. We're intrigued by Lafage Authentique Cotes du Roussillon. The flavor is powerful and full-bodied. Dark fruit envelops your taste buds. A unique wine that brings the best of Roussillon to your glass. Enjoy Lafage Authentique Cotes du Roussillon with lamb dishes or spicy pasta dishes!
