Background
Seduced by the quality from the terroirs of this region of France, Jean-Luc Thunevin decided to create a partnership with Jean-Roger Calvet and buy a few hectares of vineyards in 2000, located in Maury with beautiful terroirs of black schists. The Constance cuvee was created in 2003 and became of the of the best vins de pays des Côtes Catalanes, now << upgraded >> to Côtes de Roussillon Villages.
