Domaine Danjou-Banessy, Côtes Catalanes “Coste” 2024 France they can often leave me

they can often leave me wanting but when they come together it's always for something greater than the sum of their parts

Bloody good piss coming out of the Vignerons d’Estézargues co-op down in Southern France

Intensity is off the charts

Domaine Danjou-Banessy, Côtes Catalanes “Coste” 2024 France they can often leave mePlace: Roussillon, France Grape: Macabeu Vibe: Natural What a lovely wine. I'd usually not be too fussed about Macabeu, but we're not dealing with normal vignerons here. From a parcel called Les Terres Rouges, whole bunch pressed before heading into a big old foudre. Starts all smoky before diving into pineapple, nostalgic boiled sweets, fennel, and positive bitters. A lovely wild edge but still so classy.
