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! |

|
The latest vintage of this wine, the 2022 Red Côtes du Roussillon Les Sorcières, continues its dynamic and gourmet momentum. The limestone base and the altitude propel a fruit-driven wine with melted and harmonious tannins, which offer maximum pleasure from now on. It is the cult wine of the estate, one of the pivots of Roussillon. Drink it now or age it for another five years or more. |
|
| | |
|
Hand harvested, pre-fermentation maceration at low temperature, malolactic fermentation followed by air racking, aged for 6 months in stainless steel tanks on fine lees. |
