Benjamin Darnault Languedoc Organic 2012
About the wine
A little slice of Languedoc heaven
- When Benjamin Darnault said he wanted to make us a new ravishing red, we knew we were in for something special. Get ready to be blown away...
- Spicy, warming Syrah and soft, supple Grenache make up this super versatile Organic blend. A little slice of Languedoc heaven.
- The best bit? Angel funding helped Ben buy the grapes used to make this wine, and that saving gets passed directly to you. Your wallet won't feel a thing... but you'll feel pretty good!

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Benjamin Darnault
- When Ben left a safe winemaking job in Australia to move back to France with his young family in the noughties, at first he really struggled. The financial crash of 2007/08 clobbered the winery he was working at, so they had to let him go. He couldn’t catch a break.
- That was until Angels freed Ben from the corporate fat cats and transformed his livelihood. Thanks to Angels, Ben was finally able to set up on his own and realise his lifelong dream of putting his own name on the label. Even better, he had an advance on his next vintage!
- With Angel support, Ben has been able to invest more, source even better fruit and establish strong relationships with local growers to improve the quality of his delicious wines year-on-year. With thousands of rave reviews, he’s a bonafide Naked icon.
