Information
In 2006, Fabien Jouves took over the running of this family vineyard, located on the hillsides of Trespoux, the highest point of the appellation. He is one of Cahors' many newcomers, whose ambition is to exalt the noble variety Malbec with biodynamic practices (Biodyvin/Demeter certified). He follows the Burgundy model, both in terms of the parcel selections, long fermentations on lees, and even the shape of the bottles! Part of a new generation of winemakers in Cahors, Fabien Jouves proudly wear the colours of his appellation, and is constantly innovating his methods. His reds have a great deal of substance and are perfectly balanced, and he also produces many Vin de France cuvées. Chenin-based whites, orange wines, cuvées of pure Tannat, amphora cuvées and much more. A truly accomplished, iconoclastic range.
This fantastic, biodynamic Malbec is raised in concrete vats and should be drunk in its first ten years in order to savour its complex patina and refinement. Cultivated biodynamically on red clay soils, this characterful wine will soften after some years of aging. After manual harvests and natural vinification, the wine is matured in casks for a year and a half.
