- Considered by those in the know to be one of the truly great wine estates in Languedoc, Domaine Leon Barral traces its roots back centuries, although they only started wine production on a commercial scale in 1993. Thirteenth generation grape grower Didier Barral (the Domaine is named after his grandfather, Leon) decided to take the family business to the next level of wine production and also converted the entire 30 hectare estate to using biodynamic practices. This is a beautiful earthy, leathery, savoury red blend, with red fruit, dark fruit and spice. It feels rustic, but lively. Complex, delicious and simply fantastic.
