A legendary cuvée from Clos des Fées, La Petite Sibérie 2017 opens with deep notes of black fruits (raspberry, blackberry), spices, pepper and a hint of gunflint. The palate is full-bodied and rich with a beautiful structure that envelops aromas echoing the nose. • Delivery in a single wooden case for all orders of this wine (excluding Point Relais delivery method).

About the estate:

Hervé Bizeul, winemaker and rebellious writer, has little left to prove, as his estate is among the elite of Roussillon. That doesn't stop him from continually questioning himself, exploring new avenues, innovating, thinking outside the box, and creating new vintages. This is particularly evident in his Pinot Noir, which came out of nowhere and bravely faces the harsh sun and tramontane winds of the Agly Valley. Here, each cuvée has its own distinct personality, sometimes uncompromising, just like its winemaker. No fewer than seven different terroirs give rise to a serious and diverse interpretation of Roussillon. A model of its kind.
