"Tasty Fitou, revealing a beautiful fruitiness".

"This cuvée won over the jury with its perfect balance. The bouquet is dominated by red and black fruits, enhanced by fresh notes of camphor. Ample, suave and round, the palate extends these fruity flavors with intensity, gently supported by melted tannins, before stretching into a long, saline finish". (Le Guide Hachette 2025).

About the wine:

This cuvée seduced the jury with its perfect balance. The bouquet is dominated by red and black fruits, enhanced by fresh notes of camphor. Ample, suave and round, the palate intensely prolongs these fruity flavors, gently supported by melted tannins, before stretching into a long, saline finish.

An excellent Fitou, tannic with a hint of acidity that brings freshness to the palate, very good value for money.

I put 5* to compensate for the good reviews but low scores. This is a very drinkable wine that gives immediate pleasure!

Note and review by M. GILLES D. Published on 23/02/2025

Right from the start, Vent sets the tone: full-bodied, with a powerful tannic structure and a shimmering, intense expression of wild, warm berries. The palate is full, generous and warm to the point of being a little vinous, despite a hint of acidity that subtly balances the wine and adds a little freshness. The finish is consistent with graphite notes. The predominance of solid, well-coated tannins augurs well for ageing. Affordable, this Fitou with its strong personality seems compatible with terroir cuisine, such as spit-roasted leg of Lozère lamb or gamey dishes in sauce, rather than simple pasta dishes. Score = 4.

Note and review by M. MATHIEU W. Published on 18/02/2025

Diepe ruby kleur met paarse kern. Aan de neus rijp en zondoorstoofd rood en donker fruit, garrigue, wilde kruiden, aardsheid en de zwoele wind die deze aroma's voortstuwt. In de mond meteen veel sappig en crispy rood fruit, rode besjes, frambozen, aardbeien. Heerlijk rijp, zoet en frissappig. Gevolgd door kruidigheid en weer dat beetje aardsheid. Materie, zachte, fijnkorrelige tannine, mooi gestructureerd, prima balans en lengte. Een parel uit Fitou! Score: 16,5+/20
