The Déferlante line was born out of necessity. When Olivier Cohen's estate vineyards in Argelliers suffered significant losses to mildew in 2018, he began sourcing fruit from trusted organic growers across the Hérault to produce a series of non-vintage, zero-sulfur wines. Déferlante 2 is the rosé in that lineup: a blend of Chenin Blanc, Grenache, and Syrah grown on clay and limestone soils, labeled as Vin de France to allow the flexibility of multi-vintage blending without appellation constraints.
In the cellar, Syrah and Grenache each undergo carbonic maceration separately, then are blended with Chenin Blanc. Fermentation happens spontaneously with indigenous yeasts in stainless steel. The wine is bottled unfined, unfiltered, and with zero added sulfites.
The village of Argelliers sits northwest of Montpellier in a notably cool climatic pocket of the Hérault, where warm Mediterranean days are moderated by cool nights. Vines average 30 to 40 years old and yields are kept around 30 hl/ha. Nearby landmarks include La Grange des Pères and Montcalmes, both within a few kilometers.
Carbonic maceration on the red varieties pulls vivid red-fruit aromatics and keeps tannins minimal, while the Chenin adds structure and a streak of brisk acidity. The result is a pale rosé that drinks light but focused, with no added sulfites and nothing stripped out in the cellar.
