Description

The silkiness and aromatic finesse of a plot-selected IGP Pyrénées Orientales red wine

The estate

Voted Best Young Sommelier of France at the age of 21, Hervé Bizeul fell in love with the fairytale landscapes of the majestic Cirque de Vingrau, at the foot of the Pyrenees Orientales, in Roussillon. Restaurateur, writer and passionate for land and vine, Hervé Bizeul founded Domaine du Clos des Fées with his wife in 1997.

Over the years, Domaine du Clos des Fées has become a major name among the finest wine labels in Roussillon. Expressing the singularity of their terroir of origin, these exceptional vintages delight with their intensity and balance while having a great ageing capacity.

The vineyard

A major name among the great Roussillon wines, Domaine du Clos des Fées oversees a 30-hectare vineyard spread across 112 plots on a real mosaic of soils run in a sustainable manner.

The wine

Un Faune Avec Son Fifre from Domaine du Clos des Fées is an IGP Pyrénées Orientales wine produced from a massal selection of great quality Cabernet Franc from a terroir known as «Cassenove,» in the valley north of Vingrau, on the western foothills of a north-south facing cliff, Merlot from the "Clos des Fées" and gobelet-cultivated Cabernet Sauvignon.

Winemaking and ageing

Vinification was accompanied by regular punching of the cap as well as pumping over to bring about optimal extraction. The wine was aged in barrels, some of which were new, and then in vats until bottling.

Blend

Un Faune Avec Son Fifre 2016 from Domaine du Clos des Fées is made mostly from Cabernet Franc.
