Light, vibrant Carignan from vines planted in 1900 — high altitude, marl terraces, and Tom Lubbe's hands-off approach. 11.5% alcohol and more character than most reds twice the weight.
Carignan • Roussillon • Old vines planted 1900 • 700m altitude
Tom Lubbe founded Domaine Matassa in Calce in 2003 after years working alongside Gérard Gauby — and has spent two decades proving what old Carignan at altitude can do in the right hands. The Rouge comes from a single parcel of 120-year-old vines on marl terraces at 700 metres, biodynamically farmed with yields around 15 hectolitres per hectare. A mix of Carignan, Grey Carignan, and White Carignan all co-harvested together, short maceration with some whole bunches, 10 months in neutral 500-litre barrels, bottled without fining, filtration, or sulphur additions.
Light on its feet, serious in the glass.
