Note: RVF 15.5/20
“Delicate and elegant tannins.” (Le Guide des Meilleurs Vins de France 2013 - RVF). A cuvée typically made from the vineyard’s younger vines. The result is surprising, with remarkable concentration and freshness. A real little gem. A must-have!

Rated estate (2026 guide) 1*Star (Up-and-coming stars or quality winemakers producing wines of a high standard—you won’t be disappointed when you taste the wines from these estates)
About the estate:
Sophie and Thibaud Bardi de Fourtou took over this historic estate in Faugères in 2017. The wines we tasted for this issue are the last vestiges of the transition from Jean-Michel Alquier to the new owners. The couple’s goal? To preserve the estate’s signature style, whose vineyards are dominated by old Syrah vines from massal selections (among the first planted in Languedoc in the 1960s by Jean-Michel Alquier’s father, Gilbert), complemented by Mourvèdre and Grenache. We will be keeping a close eye on this new chapter.

Review by Mr. MICHAEL G. Posted on March 30, 2013
Having become familiar with Faugères through the famous Léon Barral, I wanted to try the more affordable Alquier. The result: lovely concentration, nice tannins, and the promise of good aging potential... A wonderful moment shared with friends.
