Le Carignan de la Source Red 2022

Fond Cyprès


Immerse yourself in the generous and authentic world of Carignan de la Source 2022 from the Fond Cyprès estate. This natural red wine, made from old Carignan vines over 60 years old, is a tribute to the clay-limestone terroirs of Languedoc-Roussillon. With a three-week maceration and 10 months of aging in vats, this cuvée reveals the full potential of this iconic grape variety in a pure, unadulterated expression.

Terroir and Vinification


This wine is made from grapes grown according to the principles of organic farming (Eurofeuille label), carefully harvested by hand to preserve their integrity. Indigenous yeasts, naturally present on the grapes, play a key role in fermentation, ensuring vinification without additives or filtration. The clay-limestone soil of the "La Source" plot offers an elegant minerality and contributes to the wine's freshness.

Tasting Notes


The Carignan de la Source 2022 reveals a deep red color with bright highlights. On the nose, subtle aromas of leather and animal notes intertwine with scents of black fruit and lime blossom, creating a seductive olfactory complexity. On the palate, this wine is distinguished by its velvety texture, well-balanced acidity, and supple tannins that stretch with finesse. A very supple Carignan, marked by a beautiful length and refreshing acidity.

Food and Wine Pairing


Ideal for accompanying Mediterranean dishes, this natural wine will pair wonderfully with dishes based on grilled lamb, roasted vegetables, or generous Provençal cuisine. Serve it at a temperature of 14-16°C and don't hesitate to decant it to reveal all its aromatic richness.

Aging Potential


Although already superb to taste, Le Carignan de la Source 2022 has an aging potential of more than 10 years, evolving into even more complex aromas with time.
