Hervé Bizeul, believing that the 2023 vintage from his vineyard—which usually produces the Petite Sibérie—would not measure up to his flagship wine, decided not to produce it. In the end, after vinifying the harvest anyway, he noticed that while it lacked length, the wine still possessed magnificent qualities. To avoid any regrets, he crafted it with just as much love and precision. The result is an elegant, velvety wine imbued with richness and complexity that will pair wonderfully with a filet mignon of venison!

About the estate:
Hervé Bizeul, a winemaker and maverick writer, has little left to prove, as his estate ranks among the elite of Roussillon. That doesn’t stop him from constantly challenging himself, exploring new avenues, innovating, thinking outside the box, and creating new vintages. A prime example is his Pinot Noir, which came out of nowhere and bravely withstands the harsh sun and the Tramontane winds of the Agly Valley. Here, each cuvée displays a personality all its own, sometimes uncompromising, much like its winemaker. From no fewer than seven different terroirs emerges a serious and diverse interpretation of Roussillon. A model of its kind.
