More info

This cuvée brings together the wines of a married couple: Sandrine Farrugia and Elian Da Ros. Sandrine is originally from Guyane, where rum has its roots. Elian is the grandson of an Italian migrant who came to the Lot-et-Garonne region when farmers were needed. Fast-forward to now, in Cocumont, where they each have their own vines to cultivate. In 2017, they came up with the idea of making a joint cuvée. This delicious wine has been made so flavourful that it’s only available in magnum format, “to be sure there’s enough for two”. It is made from Merlot and Abouriou, at once fresh, juicy and structured. Abouriou is the local grape variety, nicknamed “le Beaujolais” by the locals.

About the Producer Elian Da Ros

If you aren't yet acquainted with the Côtes du Marmandais, you're in the right place! Elian Da Ros was the one of the first wine makers to leave the area's cooperative in 1997, when he struck out on his own to make wine on his own terms. The appellation now counts 8 producers among its number and has begun to see some real success. Not far from Bordeaux, this region in the South-West is distinguished by its climate, its terroirs and its grape varieties, most notably Abouriou. Our wine maker is the grandson of an Italian migrant who came to France when farms were in need of labourers, and the family gradually bought their own land. Elian's father dedicated himself to vine-growing, which gave Elian a taste for that world from an early age. He formed his desire to make wine soon after and this goal never left him. Trained at Domaine Zind Humbrecht in Alsace, he returned to the family land in 1997. He left the cooperative, buying some new vines and selling others, before building his winery. His wines very quickly made their way to the top of the appellation, flavoursome and characterised by beautiful fruit.
