About the wine
Angels rushed to Jen's rescue, so she made this plush, velvety red as a thank you
- In 2009 Jen and her husband Didier moved to the teeny Languedoc village of Corbieres, converting an old barn into their family-run organic winery. Diddier's Family have farmed in Corbieres for centuries and know that this is a wild and totally unique corner of France, where rare new grapes grow side by side with old, well-established vines.
- When we introduced Jen to Angels last year, many of you fell head over heals, literally breaking the internet in a rush to buy a rescue case of her wines. This vital support saved Jen's winery and gave her the freedom to push new boundaries, making this exclusive wine to thank Angels for all their help.
- Using traditional Carignan grapes alongside rare, up-and-coming Chenançon, Jen has created a sensational and deeply authentic French red, that combines a rich, full body with velvety tannins, bright flavours of blackcurrant, cranberries and delicate sweet cherries. It's a triumph.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Jennifer Buck
- 20 years ago, Jennifer moved from California to France to study and teach English. She met a Frenchman called Didier, fell in love, and decided to stick around.
- Jen's husband Didier was born and raised in Douzens, a tiny village in Corbières with a population of 800. He is the son of wine growers, like almost everyone else in the village.
- In 2009 they moved back to Didier's village, where they converted an old barn into a winery. Since then, they've been slowly growing their small family-run organic wine production.
