- An assured companion to robust dishes: cassoulet, duck confit, game, and the aged cheeses of the Pyrenees. Its tannin framework demands and rewards hearty fare.

Product features : Château Barréjat Madiran Cuvée de l'Extrême 2021
Breeding
Aged in cement vat, stainless steel, fibreglass and old oak foudres.
On the eye
Very dark garnet robe with dense colour saturation
On the nose
Pronounced aromas of roasted vanilla and buttered oak. Secondary notes of spice and toasted hazelnut emerge with aeration, characteristic of careful élevage.
In the mouth
Powerful and well-structured on the palate. Firm tannins provide the backbone, with roasted and torrefied notes building through the finish. Substantial but balanced.
The Cuvée Extrême represents Château Barréjat's commitment to traditional Madiran. Pair with cassoulet, duck confit, magret, game birds, Pyrenean sheep's cheese, or Auvergne blue. A wine that honours both the terroir and the table.

CHÂTEAU BARRÉJAT
Based in Maumusson-Laguian in the Gers, Château Barréjat farms 40 hectares of Madiran across sandy silts laced with dark gravel, with yields capped at 55 hl/ha. The estate has bottled its own wines since 1967, passing through four generations of the same family; Denis Capmartin took the helm in 1992 and made a decisive investment in 2008 with the construction of an underground cellar, ensuring precise temperature control and consistency throughout élevage. At Halles Quercamps, we have selected this estate for the discipline of its yields, the typicity of its Tannat, and a range that spans red, white, rosé and sparkling. A reliable address for anyone seeking Madiran in its fullest expression.
MADIRAN ROUGE
Le Château Barréjat propose avec cette Cuvée de l\'Extrême un Madiran de pure expression tannique. Robe très sombre, arômes de vanille grillée et beurre en attaque, finale torréfiée : un rouge de caractère qui accompagne les viandes généreuses et les gibiers. À boire avec plaisir dès maintenant ou à laisser évoluer quelques années en cave.
