Mas del Périé
The Acacias 2022
Cahors | Red | 2022
The 40-year-old vines of this Malbec come from ferruginous limestone soils at an altitude of 350 meters. The grapes are hand-harvested, destemmed, and then naturally fermented for 30 days in concrete tanks. The wine then benefits from 18 months of aging in large oak casks, preserving its complexity while softening its texture. With only 25 mg/l of total SO², this wine remains pure and environmentally friendly.

Mas del Périé
In Cahors, Fabien Jouves manages Mas del Périé with a precise, plot-by-plot approach to Malbec. The different cuvées are based on the geology of the plateau and hillsides, contrasting limestone soils, which bring verticality and tension, with deeper clays, sources of flesh and density.
Biodynamics structures all the work, from soil management to winemaking. Aging uses a variety of containers—amphorae, foudres, and barrels—employed as tools for adjustment, in order to refine the profiles without masking the expression of the grape or the terroir.
The wines maintain a clear definition, with precise black fruit and structures that are never heavy. The finishes remain legible and balanced, reflecting an approach where each cuvée offers a distinct and coherent interpretation of the different facets of the Cahors plateau.
