About him: from over one hundred year old vineyards grown on granite soils with gravel and shale deposits here is this splendid deep and complex red wine, potentially one of the most aromatic of its kind that can be found in all of southern France. Alain Castex, one of our greatest heroes, a peaceful peasant who is immensely dedicated to creating magic in Roussillon. Its wines are full of passion, and it's difficult not to mention these without shedding a tear, because the liveliness, soul and heart here embody the spirituality of this immense vigneron!
