Punching well above it's weight, we loved the way this unfolded slowly in the glass. With a generosity of fruit and smokey savoury aromatics, as well as firm structure, this is intriguing and delicious. Not to mention foodie af. Classic Languedoc varieties Grenache, Mourvèdre, Cinsault and Carignan were hand harvested, fermented and aged in oak casks for 18 months. 

Three generations of Fadats have farmed in Aupilhac, set under the mountainous plateau of Larzac, in the Languedoc. In 1989 Sylvain Fadat established the estate, changing the family's course from being farmers to full time vigneron. As well as nurturing the original 13.5 hectare, south facing vineyard, Sylvain began establishing the 10 hectare Les Cocalieres vineyard in 1998. It’s set at higher altitude and on cooler, north facing slopes. These two vineyards are farmed biodynamically, with full organic and demeter certification.
