You F**k My Wine, Fabien Jouves

£26.50

Jurançon Noir is not permitted in Cahors, but that wouldn’t stop Fabien…

Fabien Jouves is world famous for his estate wines, Mas del Perie. He also has his own side project producing soif wines with limited cuvaison and no added sulphur. He was, and remains, a pioneer of this style in the region and continues to mentor up and coming winemakers in this expression of Cahors. He likes to fly in the face of the AOC’s interpretation of what Cahors should be in terms of both style and grape.

Fabien’s favourite grape to vinify is Jurançon Noir, but the AOC wouldn’t allow it in Cahors wines. Fabien’s response is this lively cuvee. The 2023 vintage is a blend of Jurançon Noir, Valdiguié, Merlot and Malbec from 50 year old vines. It is whole-bunch fermented and aged for six months in a mixture of concrete and oak. The result is a soft and subtle wine, with notes of blackberry, raspberry, spice and gentle tannins.
