Domaine Régazel
Located on the church square in Douzens, in the Aude, Domaine Régazel works a vineyard located in the heart of the Corbières. Adrian Moreno, who writes the estate's news, and Aurélie run its activities and hospitality. The relationship to the craft is readily expressed in concrete terms: observing the balance of a vine, its shapes and colours, smelling the earth at ploughing time, watching the wagtails unearth earthworms.
The vines combine white and black grape varieties. Grenache Blanc and Roussanne make up the white “Petites mains”, two varieties combined to seek the synergy between volume and freshness. Cinsault, floral and supple, and Syrah produce the red of the same name; Grenache, Carignan and Syrah go into “Sans bruit”, a blend of velvety tannins. The estate has also planted Marselan on a very stony plot, a black grape variety born from the crossing of Cabernet Sauvignon and Grenache Noir.
The cuvées have homey names. “Vin sans Blanc” and “Vin sans Rouge”, a nod to “Papé Vincent”, develop spicy profiles: ginger, white fig, hawthorn and citrus on one side; crisp small black fruits, liquorice, then redcurrant and rhubarb on the other. “Réflexion” is only retained in years deemed worthy of the name, with a unique blend and an ageing specific to each vintage. The house claims organic wines.
The tasting room, housed in a building with exposed stone walls, retains a small stone sink and an old workbench converted into a tasting table. There, you can taste the latest cuvées, glass in hand, among crates, wood and iron. The harvest, snow on the vines or the progress of work on the tasting room punctuate the news published over the seasons.
