Fabien Jouves represents the golden generation of Cahors. This young and dynamic vigneron settled in 2006 on the highest slopes of Cahors, where he took over his family’s estate of 20 hectares. Fabien, with his Prince Harry-like air about him, is the pretender to the throne in the Realm of Malbec, not to forget the winning-award for his mullet! His estate is certified organic by Ecocert and biodynamic by Demeter. His vinifications are natural, and his wines are from now on, most of the time without sulfur. Fabien earned himself a sterling reputation for his single-vineyard Cahors cuvées, which highlight his sensitivity and respect for each climat and terroir, but he has also become loved for his easy-drinking, thirst-quenching cuvées with such whimsical names as "You Fuck My Wine", "Tu Vin Plus Aux Soirées" etc... labels which have certainly helped generate buzz. But if some of his labels are laughable, his wines are very serious indeed.
Sulphites-free wine
Probably the best compromise between fruit and structure, on notes of black fruits (blackberry and plum) warmed up by a hint of vanilla, cedar wood, cacao and long pepper. Palate: seriously rich and tannic, yet with great freshness on the finish!
Minimal sulphites
Concentrated nose carried by notes of plum, blueberry, jammy blackberry, fig, sage, just a hint of vanilla... The palate is surprisingly very fresh and digestible, almost juicy (for a Cahors!), long and floral finish.
Sulphites-free wine
One of our favorite cuvées during tasting, a super aromatic natural sparkling wine. Nose carried by notes of exotic fruits and citrus fruits, lovely floral bouquet. Lively bubbles and nice length. To be served chilled whenever it feels like summer.
Sulphites-free wine
Dark robe, a nose with notes of raspberry, violet, and spices... A palate of great freshness, with flavours of intense red fruits and a supple texture... Yet another superb bottle to share among friends.
Sulphites-free wine
Superb surprise! A South West Chenin which sheds new light on the grape variety, with notes of citrus fruits, peach, quince, honey, a hint of oxidative. Complex and long palate, ample, nice volume, fresh. Very beautiful juice.
Sulphites-free wine
One of our great favorites during the tasting: a cheerful juice, on redcurrant and spices, solar but only 10% alcohol, a slender, silky fruit, the palate is super elegant, long and floral finish.
Minimal sulphites
A wine with the Rhône on the nose and the southwest on the palate! An experiment that has proven a great success, this is a beautifully crafted négociant cuvée! With notes of blackberry and cherry, this is rich juice with sweet tannins and beautiful length.
Organic or biodynamic wine
SM for Syrah Malbec, of course—what else were you thinking?! Smooth, fruity, with blackberry notes and velvety tannins. A wine made by friends, meant to be shared with friends. It all comes full circle!
