Roc des Anges Segna da Cor 2018 Cotes de Roussillon

The brilliant wines of Roc des Anges are a masterclass in finding balance in this hot, arid region close to Perpignan. As well as many single vineyard wines, they produce this assemblage of old vines of grenache, syrah and carignan on the schist, slate soils. Like a Priorat it offers a millefeuille of rich dark, but never jammy, black fruits, wild herbs, and slippery, glossy minerals.
