This classified massive "job" of stones in Occitan, was an island until Roman times until the river Aude decides to link the continent to its alluvial contributions.

Ideally exposed territories of the Castle Négly Boède and are distinguished by their different soils. Indeed, Boède sandy loam and sandstone, clay and limestone Négly give the wines from these vineyards a wide range of aromas.

Pronounced aromas of blackcurrant, prune, fig and sweet spice. Lovely and rich on the palate with intense and complex flavours of fresh and dried fruit, clove, cinnamon, prune and liquorice. Soft ripe tannins and a long finish. An impressive wine.
