Domaine Lafage Moutou Côtes Catalanes 2022 – Buy French Red Wine Online
Discover Bold Elegance from Roussillon
Crafted in the sun-soaked vineyards of Roussillon, southern France, Domaine Lafage Moutou Côtes Catalanes 2022 is a striking expression of Grenache Noir (90%) and Syrah (10%). This medium-bodied red wine offers exceptional balance, depth, and structure with a 13.5% ABV – ideal for wine lovers seeking French red wine with character and finesse.
The grapes are harvested early to preserve freshness, and the traditional fermentation includes 50% whole bunches. Daily pump-overs and an extended maceration process enhance flavour concentration, followed by ageing for 18 months in large 50 hl tuns – imparting elegance and texture without overpowering oak.
Awarded 93 points by James Suckling and 17/20 by Jancis Robinson in 2024, this Côtes Catalanes red is a superb choice for both collectors and everyday enthusiasts looking to buy French Grenache wine online.
Tasting Notes
On the nose, ripe red fruits, wild herbs, and a touch of spice emerge gracefully. The palate reveals layers of black cherry, plum, and pepper with silky tannins and a mineral-driven finish. Residual sugar is low (2g/L), ensuring a dry and refined profile.
Perfect Pairings
Enjoy with grilled meats, roast lamb, ratatouille, or aged cheeses. Versatile and food-friendly, it shines both on the dinner table and on its own.

| Winery | The Moutou plot lies in the Crest area, on black marl soils characteristic of the Têt terraces in the heart of Roussillon, close to the Mediterranean coast. The vineyards are cultivated using Regenerative Agriculture with low-density plant cover, no ploughing and using Biochar, a carbon-rich compound obtained from the pyrolysis of green waste acting as a micro-sponge and which increases the biological, chemical and physical fertility of soils. Different methods of "cultivating water" are being tested, a commodity which has become so precious and scarce, particularly in Roussillon, which has been hit by extreme drought. |
