Tom Lubbes Matassa is an exceptional winery. Although only founded in 2003, it is one of the icons of the natural wine movement.Read here the entire winemaker portrait of Matassa

Tom, a New Zealander who grew up in South Africa, found his oenological raison d'être and also his love in Roussilon. The Matassa estate produces wines from the traditional Catalan grape varieties: Carignan, Mourvèdre, Grenache (mainly Lladonner Pelut, the old Catalan "clone" of Grenache), Grenache Gris, Muscat d'Alexandrie and Muscat de Petits-Grains. The vines are often in mixed sets, especially in the very old vineyards. In total, 20 hectares are cultivated on slate, marl, black shale and black marl soils. Tom still farms some of the very low-yielding old vines around the village of Calce, but he has expanded heavily into other areas where yields are a little more generous, typically in the 25/30 hl/h range (still relatively low for the region).
