James' Review

A winery that has long been one of the stalwarts of the Pyrenees region, owned by Matthew and Lisa Barry. The estate vineyards (shiraz, sauvignon blanc, cabernet sauvignon, chardonnay, merlot, cabernet franc and semillon) are organically managed, and provide the total intake of the winery. Exports to China and Japan.
