This wine is named after a 300 meter wide meteor which struck the hillside 10,000 years ago making a huge crater which the vines now grow in and around. The domaine benefits from a high altitude and schist soils which is rare in the region and gives the wines extra freshness and minerality.
A vibrant cherry-red in colour. Aromas of dried red fruits and roasted coffee. On the palate, fresh yet full-bodied with further flavours of red berries and dried herbs. The finish is full and lengthy with excellent acidity and firm minerality making this a very harmonious wine.Pair with a cassoulet, saddle of lamb catalane-style or a simple dish of spicy sausages.
