Located in the heart of Corbieres, Mattes-Sabran crafts full-flavored, seductive wines from the garrigue-covered hillsides of France's Mediterranean coast.
The 2022 Dionysos is worthy of the highest praise and devotion. Full and pleasing, with miles of red fruit and spice, touch of earth, a hint of licorice, and energy from bow to stern. It is a red blend that will inspire wild revelry twice over; once for its persistent, juicy flavor and twice for its amazing value.

Many of the Mattes-Sabran estate vineyards are located on steep hillsides, terraced into the chalky, poor soils. This tough terrain is peppered with galets roulés, the large, oval granite stones typical in Châteauneuf-du-Pape. Reds are structured, mineral and richly perfumed; rosés floral and boldly flavoured.
The size of Mattes-Sabran’s vineyards is a legacy of the estate’s ancient role as the seat of the duke of Narbonne. Yet vine-growing and winemaking here truly stretches back centuries; parts of the ancient Roman ‘Via Domitia’ run through the estate.
Mattes-Sabran’s terroir can be divided into two parts: the first, smaller portion is located on the plains near the Berre River, on alluvial soils. The larger portion, higher up in the hills, includes both gravel-rich terraces with large quartz stones (seen most often in Châteauneuf-du-Pape) and plots rich in limestone. The grapes are fermented on indigenous yeasts in temperature-controlled, stainless steel tanks and aged in tanks.
It's important to remember that taste is subjective, and personal preferences play a significant role.
