Presentation
Syrah and Grenache Noir from a parcel selection come together in amphoras. This millenary container, without artifice or wood, enhances the purity of the fruit, the freshness, and the finesse of the tannins. A nod to the ancient roots of Roussillon, Confidentielle embodies the alliance between tradition and modernity, at the heart of the winemaking village of Baixas.
