Discover the grape variety: Fel

Simple, fresh dry gris whites with a pale rose-copper robe, a supple palate with moderate acidity, and undemonstrative aromas of citrus and white flowers. A discreet rustic profile. Preserved in a few ampelographic collections, Fel is an ancient heritage variety whose commercial cultivation has almost vanished; it is studied for its genetic interest. A rare, poorly documented gris grape grown in negligible quantities.

The wine region of Minervois

Mediterranean Languedoc reds (84% of output) north of the Canal du Midi. Signature Syrah with notes of blackberry, violet, black pepper and garrigue, blended with dense Mourvèdre, sunny Grenache (candied red fruits, spices) and old-vine Carignan (black fruits, dry herbs, firm tannins). Fleshy palate, freshness at altitude. Minervois-La Livinière cru at the top (1999), dense and age-worthy.
