Domaine du Coulet 150000 bottles in the cellar

Founded in 1998 by Matthieu Barret, Domaine du Coulet covers 10 hectares in the Cornas appellation, planted on ancient terraces facing east. The terroir of Cornas is very special, made up of ancient, highly degraded granite formations called "gore," Matthieu Barret maintains low yields, never exceeding 25 hl/ha, and with cultivation that respects the environment and the balance of the plants, he aims to create authentic wines with great personality.

Great attention in the care of the vineyards

Mathieu tends his vines with the utmost respect for the terroir and the plant, following the precepts of organic and biodynamic agriculture; the winery has been certified since the early 2000s. At Cornas and on its steep slopes, the terraces that accommodate the vines face mostly east, ideal conditions for ripening grapes in an area that is notoriously hot. Matthieu Barret works mainly 3 grape varieties: Syrah of course but also Roussanne and Marsanne, destined for the production of an incredible white, the "Brise Cailloux Blanc."
