Banyuls 1958 – Cave de l'étoile

This old vintage Banyuls 1958 from Cave de l'étoile, made from the best crus of the Catalan terroir, has aged in old oak barrels.

This old vintage Banyuls 1958 is available in 75 cl bottles.

With its unique expertise in aging Banyuls, its range is exceptionally rich.
The vineyard is located in the extreme south of France, where the Pyrenees meet the Mediterranean. It is delimited by the 4 ports of Collioure, Port-Vendres, Banyuls-sur-Mer, and Cerbère. Its surface area is 1800 hectares. It is between sea and mountains that the vines cling to the steep slopes on schist soil. They are exclusively hand-worked.

Terroir of AOC Banyuls

At the eastern end of the Pyrenees, on the steep hillsides of the Côte Vermeille, old vines cultivated on terraces overlook the Mediterranean Sea. This is the setting of this exceptional terroir steeped in tradition. Banyuls is exclusively produced in the four communes that connect the last Pyrenean foothills to the sea: Collioure, Port-Vendres, Banyuls-sur-Mer, and the border village of Cerbères.

The region benefits from an exceptional microclimate, annual sunshine of over 300 days, frequent and sometimes violent winds, rare rainfall, and direct maritime influence, which naturally leads to low yields.
