About the estate:

Winemakers Adèle Arnaud and Olivier Gil honed their craft under the guidance of renowned winemakers before settling at this Haut-Languedoc estate in 2014. They cultivate (organically) 11 hectares of old vines in the Faugères appellation and 4 hectares in the Côtes de Thongue IGP. Hand-harvesting and native yeasts are standard practice here.

About the estate:

Adèle and Olivier met in Montpellier before working in various vineyards around Collioure. The allure of schist led them to Faugères—more specifically, to Fos—where they discovered pockets of old vines. In less than 10 years, they have become the new face of the appellation and today offer a clear and accurate expression of the schist terroirs. Their vines, averaging over 30 years of age, are nestled at altitudes ranging from 200 to 400 meters. The different styles of wine are the result of diligent work on individual plots, and a transition to organic farming began in 2019. With the 2022 harvest, the couple acquired a new property: a winery on the road to Pézenas, complete with a very comfortable guesthouse.
