Description

A powerful and complex Côtes du Roussillon Villages 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

La Petite Sibérie from Domaine du Clos des Fées is a Côtes du Roussillon Villages wine made from a single plot of old vines planted on the southern slope of an east-west facing hill. The vines are grown on a clay-limestone soil made up of schist flows with a high iron content. The plot is crossed by an icy north-west wind more than 200 days a year.

Winemaking and ageing

Harvest done by hand. Maceration for 20 days with extraction by delicate punching down. Run off into new barrels. Aged on lees, without sulphur. Regular racking with a Mourvèdre/Syrah blend.

Blend

Grenache (96%)
Mourvèdre (2%)
Syrah (2%)

Characteristics and tasting tips for La Petite Sibérie 2014 from Domaine du Clos des Fées

Tasting

Nose
Powerful and very complex, the nose develops vanilla notes which evolve, after airing, into fragrances of black fruit, blackberry jam, blackcurrant and warm blueberry tart.

Palate
The palate is very fine, with velvety tannins, a lovely freshness and a stunning length.

Storage

This wine can be laid down until around 2029 to release all of its aromatic nuances.

Food and wine pairing

This red wine goes perfectly with a duck breast or spiced meat, but not spicy dishes. It is also a perfect accompaniment to cheeses such as a well-aged farmhouse Saint-Nectaire or creamy washed-rind cheeses.
