More infoThe S&M cuvée produced by Fabien Jouves is a delightful blend of Syrah and Malbec, with each variety planted in 50% of the vineyard. The 30 year-old Syrah and 35 year-old Malbec vines are planted on specific soils. The Syrah thrive on clay-limestone from the Massif Central, while the Malbec from Cahors flourishes on Kimmeridgian limestone. The emblematic localities of Les Arlettes in Cornas and La Rozière et les Reclops in Cahors add a unique geological richness to this cuvée. The winemaking process follows natural traditions with native yeasts, no added sulphur or oenological inputs. Following the fermentation process, the wine is matured in concrete vats for 11 months to refine the aromas and structure.
The bottling process is meticulous and completed with cross-flow filtration and a minute dose of sulfite. The S&M cuvée displays a beautiful colour and an elegant tannic structure. Notes of red fruit make this a seductive nectar.

About the Producer Mas Del Périé
In 2006, Fabien Jouves took over the running of this family vineyard, located on the hillsides of Trespoux, the highest point of the appellation. He is one of Cahors' many newcomers, whose ambition is to exalt the noble variety Malbec with biodynamic practices (Biodyvin/Demeter certified). He follows the Burgundy model, both in terms of the parcel selections, long fermentations on lees, and even the shape of the bottles! Part of a new generation of winemakers in Cahors, Fabien Jouves proudly wear the colours of his appellation, and is constantly innovating his methods. His reds have a great deal of substance and are perfectly balanced, and he also produces many Vin de France cuvées. Chenin-based whites, orange wines, cuvées of pure Tannat, amphora cuvées and much more. A truly accomplished, iconoclastic range.
