The estate and the wine
The estate and the wine Michel Chapoutier continues his eternal quest for excellence at the Domaine de Bila-Haut in Roussillon. A leader in biodynamic viticulture, he applies the same precepts to these southern terroirs that have made him one of the world's most renowned winemakers.

Wine The 2018 Red Côtes du Roussillon Villages Latour de France Occultum Lapidem is once again a success. Its intense perfumes of black fruits, garrigue and spices slip into a concentrated, powerful palate that remains fresh and without any harshness. A bottle already ready to drink with grilled or stewed meat, or to keep in the cellar. Rated 91/100 by Parker and 92-94/100 by Jeb Dunnuck, this is a best-seller!
Vinification Hand harvested and totally destemmed, maceration for 4 weeks, regular punching of the cap, 50% of the wine matured in concrete vats.
