Domaine de Seguela “Cuvee Jean Julien” Cotes du Roussillon

The History

Le Domaine Séguéla is operated by Trinidad and Jean-Pierre Séguéla, for whom wine making has been a family tradition spanning over 7 generations. Passionate about his profession and highly respectful of the “terroir” of his locality, the Seguela has established the goal of raising the reputation traditionally attributed to his region of Roussillon, by producing wines of the highest standards of quality. Like in all art forms, a successful creation is not simply explained by explicit technical criteria. It also depends on the careful negotiation of several interweaving factors, most of which requiring substantial investments in various resources both human and financial in nature, which are often bypassed by contemporary viticulture.

The grape

60% Syrah, 30 % Carignan, 10% Grenache

Tasting note

Very complex nose yet consistent: blackcurrant, blackberry, fig, hay, cocoa, hints of menthol, tobacco, and undergrowth. Very rich and happy mouth, beautiful tannins, very good consistency between nose and palate: a very elegant full-bodied wine
