Created by Jeff Carrel, this Malepère showcases a still-little-known appellation in the Pyrenean foothills, where Mediterranean and oceanic influences converge. A blend of equal parts Merlot and Malbec, it is made from grapes grown on the slopes of Mont Naut, in the westernmost vineyard of the Languedoc. Vinified without added sulfites and subtly aged in oak, it expresses a rich, precise, and resolutely fruit-forward style, true to Jeff Carrel’s philosophy: to offer accessible, authentic, and generous wines.
