Le Clos 2024

Côtes d'Auvergne | Rouge | 2024

This single-vineyard cuvée originates from a historic vine (over 200 years old) on limestone soil mixed with basaltic debris, cultivated without inputs. It is hand-harvested, undergoes a long maceration, fermentation with indigenous yeasts, and aging in concrete or fiber tanks. The wine develops a dense and fruity character, freshness, and beautiful mineral purity.

Our Review of the Cuvée

The color is translucent purple with violet reflections. The nose, initially discreet, opens up to ripe black fruits, violet, and a peppery hint after aeration. On the palate, the texture is round and full-bodied, dense yet without heaviness. The crisp and juicy fruit is structured by present but silky tannins, supported by a fresh acidity that provides dynamism. The finish is persistent, marked by a slight salinity and garrigue notes. An authentic wine, vibrant with personality, perfect with roasted vegetable dishes, poultry, or robust cuisine.

Les Chemins de l'Arkose

Languedoc | France

In Puy-de-Dôme, volcanic soils yield vibrant, structured wines with an almost mineral texture. The estate employs a gentle extraction process for Gamay and Pinot. The result is elegant, elongated, and highly digestible red wines. A remarkable expression of high-altitude terroir.
