Château Ollieux Romanis Cuvee Prestige Corbières 2022

While much of the Languedoc is busy chasing high-volume trends, Château Ollieux Romanis remains the spiritual anchor of Corbières-Boutenac.

The 2022 Cuvée Prestige isn’t just a good value southern French red—it’s a bottle that punches so far above its weight class it makes you question why you’re still paying triple digits for underperforming Rhônes.

Carignan is the backbone blended with Grenache and Syrah, sourced from ancient vines tucked into the iron-rich red soils of the Pinada. On the palate, it’s velvety and expansive, showing off ripe tannins that give it enough structure to age, though it’s distractingly drinkable right now.
