Tête de Bélier Saint-Drézéry Rouge is one of the flagship wines of Château Puech-Haut and a powerful yet refined expression of the Saint-Drézéry terroir in the Languedoc. The wine is produced mainly from Syrah, complemented by Grenache and Mourvèdre, sourced from low-yielding vines planted on limestone and clay soils that contribute both structure and freshness.
Vinification is carried out with meticulous parcel selection and controlled extraction to achieve concentration without excess. Aging takes place in French oak barrels, carefully calibrated to add depth and complexity while preserving the purity of the fruit.
Aromatically, the wine shows intense notes of black cherry, blackberry, and ripe plum, layered with spice, pepper, garrigue herbs, and subtle smoky nuances. On the palate, it is dense and structured, with firm yet polished tannins and a vibrant core that balances its richness.
The finish is long, powerful, and persistent, reflecting both the Mediterranean character of the site and the precision-driven style of the estate. Tête de Bélier Saint-Drézéry Rouge is widely regarded as one of the most iconic and age-worthy wines of Château Puech-Haut, combining intensity with elegance.
