This Cuvée Favorite, mainly made from Syrah vines planted at an altitude of over 300 m, expresses itself with finesse, gourmandise and generosity. On the nose, the smoky, balsamic structure opens onto notes of black fruit and thyme. On the palate, the wine is concentrated yet crisp, blending wild berries and graphite.

About the domain :
Oenologists, Adèle Arnaud and Olivier Gil trained with well-known winemakers before setting up this Haut-Languedoc estate in 2014. They farm (organically) 11 ha of old vines in the Faugères appellation and 4 ha in IGP Côtes de Thongue. Hand-harvesting and indigenous yeasts are de rigueur here.

About the wine:
Aksou Syrah, dominant but not overbearing, also produced at altitude, reveals a spicy breath of racy red fruit.
About the domain :
Adèle and Olivier met in Montpellier before working at various estates in Collioure. The call of the schist led them to Faugères, more precisely to Fos, where they found islands of old vines. In less than 10 years, they have become the new face of the appellation, and today offer a frank and fair definition of schist terroirs. Their vines, on average over 30 years old, nestle at altitudes of between 200 and 400 meters. The different styles of wine are the result of assiduous parcel-by-parcel work, and an organic conversion has been initiated for 2019. With the 2022 harvest, the couple have taken on a new location: a cellar on the road to Pézenas, complemented by a very comfortable gîte.
