The team's opinion

THE Domaine of Clos des Fées continues to surprise us with Le Chat du Marquis 2019, a vintage that pays homage to the tale of Puss in Boots. Hervé Bizeul, who enjoys venturing off the beaten path, proves it here with a single-varietal wine that is rare for the region: a 100% Tempranillo. This vintage was born from a desire for total freedom: that of acclimatizing the great Spanish grape variety to the clay-limestone soils of Vingrau. It is a wine that rivals the finest Rioja wines in elegance, while retaining the sun-drenched character of Roussillon.
