Cellier des Demoiselles Cuvée Solidaire 2024

Special-edition old-vine luxury southern French red – rarely seen in the UK
Help preserve over 100 years of heritage with this luxurious southern French red. It’s a UK exclusive from France’s oldest co-operative winery, and all proceeds go to support the 15 growers whose vineyards suffered in the wildfires of 2025.

Cellier des Demoiselles Cuvée Solidaire is a rare chance to enjoy an authentic southern French red from Coteaux de la Cabrerisse – a quality enclave within France’s highly regarded Corbières region.

\n\n

The cellar is one of France’s oldest co-operatives – founded in 1914 and named after the young women who kept it going during World War I. Today it’s run by fifth-generation grower Baptiste Cabal and supports another 15 family growers in the area.

\n\n

In 2025 the region was hit by the worst fire of the last century – damaging homes, tearing through forests and destroying vast areas of precious heirloom vineyards. But rather than giving up, Baptiste set to work on this exceptional red.

\n\n

Cuvée Solidaire is a best-of-the-best blend of Carignan, Syrah and Grenache – the classic grapes of Corbières – all hand-harvested to ensure the highest quality.

\n\n

Luxuriously rich and fresh red berry fruit caresses the palate – deep cherry and juicy raspberry – with all the spicy charm of France’s south. Perfect with cassoulet, roast lamb or a hearty vegetable stew.
