Guy Salmona, who transitioned from a career in computer engineering to winemaking at age 40, pursued his passion after studying viticulture and vinification in Burgundy. He purchased Chateau Laurou in Fronton in 1997, seeing it as a "sleeping beauty" ready for transformation. With enthusiasm and a spirit of adventure, Salmona invested in the property, achieving organic certification in 2013. Known for his commitment to quality, he harmonizes with the vineyard’s cycles, terroir, and vintage variations, embodying his philosophy with the motto, “We make wines that we like.”

'Les Complices,' meaning 'partners in crime,' perfectly describes this harmonious blend of local Négrette and Syrah grapes. Bursting with enchanting aromas of violet florals and peonies layered over top notes of blackberry compote and graphite. Velvety tannins envelop the mouth and are tempered by ripe fruit flavours with hints of black olive tapenade on the palate. Rich and textured, this wine provides a deep and complex experience with a lingering finish that offers impressive depth.

This will be a solid match with grilled or cured meats but will also compliment roasted veggie-based fare.

60% Négrette, 40% Syrah. Rapturous perfume inspires and is enhanced by a cooling breezy freshness which billows and swells along to the long and haunting finish. An assault on the senses!
