Château Lauriga ‘Cuvée Bastien’ represents a fine expression of craftsmanship from the sun-blessed Roussillon region in southern France. The estate produces this wine with meticulous care, highlighting both terroir and tradition in every carefully balanced bottle. It carries the name of the founder’s son, symbolising continuity, heritage, and an enduring family commitment to quality winemaking.

The grapes come from low-yielding vines rooted in soils rich with clay, limestone, and rolled pebbles. These conditions ensure concentrated fruit, natural freshness, and an elegant structure that defines the character of this cuvée. Each parcel receives hand harvesting at optimal ripeness, preserving aromatic intensity and purity of flavour. The winemaking team selects only the best grapes to honour the dedication embodied in Bastien’s name.

Fermentation proceeds in stainless steel to retain freshness and aromatic clarity. Maturation occurs in French oak barrels, which lend subtle spice and fine tannic integration. The resulting wine achieves a poised balance between ripe fruit expression and refined oak influence. Every stage of production demonstrates precision, patience, and a respect for the vineyard’s natural gifts.

Tasting Notes

In the glass, the wine displays a deep, garnet-red hue with flashes of youthful brilliance. Aromas lift immediately, offering notes of black cherry, ripe plum, and wild blackberry, layered with delicate vanilla. Hints of liquorice, pepper, and subtle cocoa enrich the bouquet, giving depth and inviting complexity. Each inhalation reveals a new facet of its southern character.

The palate is generous yet controlled, delivering supple tannins and a vibrant seam of natural acidity. Ripe fruit flavours dominate, supported by gentle oak spice and earthy undertones. The finish lingers gracefully, leaving a memory of dark fruit, herbs, and mineral freshness. It shows power and elegance in harmonious measure.

Château Lauriga ‘Cuvée Bastien’ pairs beautifully with roast lamb, game dishes, or aged hard cheeses. Serve slightly below room temperature to appreciate freshness alongside depth. This wine suits both immediate enjoyment and careful cellaring for added complexity. For discerning drinkers, it represents authentic Roussillon character crafted with integrity and dedication.
