“A deep-red wine, born of soil rich in siderolites, which is clearly evident on the nose. Refined and almost briny, the fruit is precise, clean, straightforward, and well-defined—flavorful and juicy. Everything is in place, but the wine as a whole is still a bit too restrained, a bit too young.” (The Guide to the Best Wines of France 2021 - RVF)

About wine:
A deep, rich wine, born of soil rich in siderolites, which is clearly evident. Refined and almost briny, the fruit is precise, clean, straightforward, and well-defined—flavorful and juicy. Everything is in place, but the wine as a whole is still a bit too restrained, a bit too young.
About the estate:
Located on the organic slopes of Trespoux, the highest area of the appellation, Fabien Jouves offers a range of refined wines that respect the identity of the terroirs, even going so far as to indicate the geological origin on the labels of his bottles. The vintages have the dual advantage of precision and freshness. The recent gravity-fed winery is combined with a return to mixed farming, with the planting of truffle trees, lavender, beehives, old orchards, and the rearing of black pigs in the open air under organic certification. Several plots have been planted with old "conservatory" grape varieties: Cahours, Negral, Baral, Valdiguié Pissaïre, Magdeleine Noire, Mérille, Grand Noir de la Calmette, Gibert, Noual, Malpé, Jurançon, and others. Fabien Jouves possesses the plant material, winemaking tools, and talent that place him among the great winemakers of the Southwest. His wines are expressive, innovative, and, although sulfur-free, always precise and deliciously flavorful.
