Domaine Cassagne et Vitailles - Combarels in the Light - Magnum 2023
Domaine Cassagne et Vitailles is located in Montpeyroux, in the Languedoc region . The estate was founded in 2015 by two friends: Matthieu Rollin and Nicolas Seffusatti . The 7-hectare vineyard is divided into several plots, reflecting the diversity of the Mediterranean terroirs between Languedoc and Roussillon. The duo favors organic compost, controlled grassing, low yields and manual work. They practice biodynamics on plots replanted in mass selections. The harvest is late to push ripeness and the small stainless steel vats isolate the juices from each plot. The cellar is built from Fontvieille stone blocks for its thermal inertia. The aging is long, mainly in barrels from the Chassin house (which supplies the largest Burgundy estates such as Coche-Dury and Romanée-Conti). The wines are aged for 12 to 36 months or more, then refined in concrete eggs.
Grape variety: Syrah, Grenache, Carignan
