Domaine de l’Horizon is all about purity and terroir, making wines with old vines, organic farming, and minimal intervention. Mar i Muntanya (“Sea and Mountain”) reflects the dramatic landscape of the Côtes Catalanes, blending Grenache and Carignan from high-altitude vineyards with Syrah from lower, warmer sites. The result? A wine that’s both fresh and structured, with an unmistakable sense of place.

Red cherry, wild strawberry, and black raspberry lead, with layers of thyme, black olive, and crushed rock adding depth. The tannins are silky but firm enough to give structure, while bright acidity keeps everything lifted. Decant for a little extra aromatic pop, then pair with grilled lamb, roasted vegetables, or anything kissed by fire and smoke. A soulful, energetic Roussillon red with real elegance.

More about Domaine de l'Horizon

The village of Calce counts something like 200 habitants, yet it’s one of the most exciting places in France for wine production. It’s located in the Roussillon, a few miles outside of the medieval city of Perpignan and a half hour’s drive from the Spanish border. While it’s politically French, more importantly, it is Catalan, culturally and linguistically. And, we’ll see, viticulturally.

Its proximity to the Mediterranean offers some respite from the hot climate of Southern France. The vineyards lie at relatively high elevation; cool nights help temper the heat, too. Winds sweep in from the north and the east, making organic farming easier and keeping acid and alcohol levels in check. And the village’s soils are dramatically diverse — there are multiple types of slate, iron-rich marls, alluvial gravels and more.

Domaine de l’Horizon is a benchmark producer of this wild and fascinating little region. German-born Thomas Theibert was inspired by Gerard Gauby’s hands-off approach: farming is biodynamic, and in the cellar, there's little to no manipulation. Thomas worked and consulted for wineries in France and Italy, and managed exports for Stockinger, the Austrian cooperage that provides barrels to the wine world’s hottest wineries. But when he landed in Calce, and saw the promise of its centurion vines and unique terroir, he knew it would be his home for a long time.

Flatiron's Take

From the Importer

What Rosenthal Wine Merchant has to say about this wine:

“Mar y Muntanya” (“Sea and Mountains” in Catalan) combines 45% each Syrah and Carignan with a splash of Grenache, raised in a mix of cement vat and large oak barrel. Semi-carbonic maceration gives this wine a certain lift and fruit-driven exuberance, though its easygoing vinification does nothing to hamper its expression of stoniness and garrigue-y depth. This wine has the spirit of a Côte de Beaune rouge, showing just how distinct Calce is from its neighbor Languedoc-Roussillon. It may lack the imposing depth of L’Horizon’s more serious wines, but it’s hard to imagine one from this region that is more satisfyingly delicious.
