Vieille Vigne Rouge 2019

Domaine Bois Moisset

Nestled in Occitanie, this cuvée Vieille Vigne Falgueyras from Domaine Bois Moisset is a beautiful expression of Syrah from its Tarn terroir. Made from old vines aged 30 and 40 years old, planted on boulbène and gravel soils, this natural wine is vinified with a minimalist and respectful approach.

A vintage marked by balance

2019 was anything but a restful year: after a few episodes of hail in the spring, the hot summer was punctuated by beneficial storms in July and August, ensuring the grapes reached beautiful maturity. Harvested on September 19, the Syrah was destemmed and then macerated for a month in concrete vats, with two punchings to gently extract color and structure. Fermentation took place without the addition of sulfites, at a temperature not exceeding 23 °C, thus preserving all the freshness of the fruit. After aging for nine months in vats, the wine was bottled unfiltered to preserve its purest expression.

A delicious wine full of character

On tasting, Vieille Vigne Falgueyras reveals a fruity and charming profile. Its deep, dark color announces an intense nose of blackcurrant, blackberry, and morello cherry, accompanied by a peppery touch typical of Syrah. On the palate, the attack is full and juicy, offering a beautiful balance between indulgence and freshness. The tannins are fine and silky, giving way to a savory and persistent finish.

Pairings and tasting moments

This accessible and convivial red is ideal for casual meals as well as large gatherings with friends. It will pair perfectly with charcuterie, grilled meats, pizzas, Mediterranean dishes, or even a good summer barbecue. Enjoy slightly chilled to enhance its freshness and fruitiness.

Jérome Lambert

A pure, sweet Chenin Blanc that respects itself, Du bout des lèvres comes from schist soil where fifty-year-old vines grow, harvested at different stages of maturity. It is here that botrytis, or noble rot, is responsible for achieving this aromatic power on both the nose and the palate. It will be wonderful as an aperitif, accompanied by some salted butter biscuits.

Aging for eighteen years in oak barrels has given this cognac a powerful yet delicate character, with powerful notes of cinnamon, hazelnut, rancio, and exotic wood. Round and delicate, it deserves to be enjoyed as a digestif.

My Sweet Navine White 2013

Les Vignes de Babass Dervieux

A small bottle but a great wine! A sweet white made from 100% Chenin, My Sweet Navine is produced from late harvests on the schist plot where the estate's other Chenins are also grown. A delicate amber color, with notes of citrus and candied fruit on the nose. On the palate, there is a surprising freshness despite the residual sugar: this is explained by the lack of sorting, as the grapes are at varying stages of ripeness. We thus benefit from green berries, ripe berries, and varying degrees of noble rot. and a light sparkle which gives way to a beautiful length, always with notes of candied fruit.
