Romain Le Bars A 2 C'est Mieux 2020

Country: France 
Region: Rhone Valley
Grape:  Cinsault, Carignan
Colour: Red
Bottle Size: 75cl 
Alcohol: 13.5%
Vintage: 2020


Romain runs a tiny 1.5 hectare estate in Gard, in the southern Rhône region. Since his first vintage in 2018 he has slowly acquired more land, meaning there is more wine available for us. Romain spent 7 years working with winemaker Eric Pfifferling at Domaine de L’Anglore, prior to that assisted Matthieu Vallée at Château Yvonne. Romain works, mostly, with Carignan, Grenache and Syrah, and vinifies in old wood using little to no sulphur. His wines are about drinkability and he is really showing mastery of carbonic maceration. Incredible and extremely limited wines, from a rising star in the South of France.

Romain Le Bars A 2 C'est Mieux is a blend of Carignan (50%) from his own vineyards and Cinsault (50%) from Julien Daumas.  After traditional maceration for Cinsault and carbonic maceration for Carignan, the wine is aged in barrels.
