James Suckling
“A white wine with subtle elegance that unfolds gracefully”
Le Chemin reveals aromas of crisp apple, fresh apricot, and white flowers. Upon aeration, the profile expands with buttery and delicately smoky notes, before unfolding into savory hints of candied apricot and caramelized pear. Fresh, full-bodied, and exceptionally refined, this wine captivates with its balance and aromatic depth.

Cathy and Daniel Fournié took over this 30-hectare estate in 1998, and it has been certified organic since 2012. As self-taught winemakers, they sought advice from neighboring vintners.

About the estate:
Since 1998, Cathy and Daniel Fournié have been running this family-owned estate, joined in 2015 by their daughter Mathilde. With guidance from Pascal and Jean-Marc Verhaeghe (Château du Cèdre), they showcase the third terraces of the Lot region. Their approach respects both the soil and the grapes’ ripeness, and each vintage reflects this commitment to quality. The range continues to gain in precision: even the classics offer Malbecs that are supple, elegant, and full of energy.
