The estate and the wine |
|
|
Hard-working, inspired and rigorous, Hervé Bizeul has made Clos des Fées into one of the most beautiful success stories of Roussillon, a true summit of French viticulture. His wines are the reflection of his character and integrity, drawing from the terroirs of Calce their extraordinary flavor profile and warmth.
Thanks to this incredible winemaker, wines from the south of France are being recognized among some of the most enticing of French viticulture. This estate is without a doubt an icon of the French wine scene, and one whose popularity only keeps on growing! |
|
| | |
|
A blend of the estate's oldest vines (50 to 100 years old), dominated by Grenache, the 2020 red Côtes du Roussillon Villages Vieilles Vignes offers remarkable depth linked to a fleshy, expressive nose with floral and spicy notes. This wine is very complex, deep and well structured, and is destined for long aging. Discover it in four or five years, and later on, with grilled meat. |
|
| | |
|
Hand harvested and destemmed, pre-fermentation maceration at low temperature, temperature-controlled fermentation with gentle extraction by daily punching down, draining, resting in vats for 2 months before blending and then maturing for 12 months in concrete vats. |
