Produced from a vineyard parcel of just one hectare, this cuvée, fermented in egg shaped tanks, has a good texture but is also very delicate, even in its youth. More info

Unsurprisingly, this single varietal Malbec owes its name to its vinification and élevage in amphorae, with no sulphites added. This natural, living, terroir-driven wine is intensely fruity and impeccably clean. Made for cellaring, it will gain in density and complexity, lifting dishes of red meat and stews.

Cahors Mas Del Périé Amphore Fabien Jouves serve at a temperature of 16°C. It will pair perfectly with the following dishes: Civet de cerf, Boeuf en daube.

Information about domain 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.
