Château Ollieux Romanis is a 60-hectare (148-acre) domaine in the Boutenac area of the Corbières that has belonged to the Bories family since 1978 (although its history as a wine estate dates back to the 18th century). Pierre Bories, who up until then had worked in finance, came ‘home’ in 2001 because his parents had been badly let down by an exporter and, through no fault of their own, the property was in real financial difficulty. He took the estate over, ‘with no clients and a lot of debt’, and over the last two decades has radically transformed it.

Frankly delicious! A festival of orchard fruit so fresh that it tastes as if it’s only just been picked off the trees. Nectarines and apples and oranges with a zap of lime peel. A new-summer-morning kind of wine, glistening with the brightest of sunlit dew.
