Notes | André Iché inherited an impressive 13th century castle and a large estate in the barren Minervois region creating Chateau d'Oupia. Robert Parker has consistently praised this estate and rated the wine a “best buy.” Les Heretiques is 100% Carignan from 40+ year-old vines. Half of of the wine is fermented in barrel with a maceration of 30 days. The other half is made by carbonic maceration. The result is a deeply colored wine with rich dark berry fruit and lush texture. | |||
