The wine

Hervé Bizeul s'est installé en 1997 dans la Vallée de l'Agly après avoir été jeune sommelier, restaurateur et écrivain dans le domaine du vin et de l'art de vivre. Il a été séduit par ce terroir composé d'une grande variété de pierres et de terres.
Sa cuvée Les Sorcières est déjà bien connue en rouge mais existe également en blanc. Il s'agit ni plus ni moin d'un assemblage de cépages sudistes comme le grenache blanc, le vermentino, la roussanne et le macabeu. Sa robe est d'une couleur or pâle aux reflets verts et son nez est complexe et puissant alliant des arômes de fleurs blanches, de fruits blancs et d'agrumes. La bouche est fraîche et fruitée, enrobée dans une matière souple. Force est de constater que sa finale dirigée par des saveurs d'agrumes amène une belle vivacité. Un vin idéal pour l'apéritif ou pour accompagner des fruits de mer.

Information about domain Clos des Fées

Before settling down amid the vines, walls and soil of the Clos des Fées, Hervé Bizeul's peregrinations had been many, flitting around the wine business and the world in general. As a sommelier, as a journalist… but most of all, as a son of this hard ground, with a real pride in Roussillon. It was one day in 1990, looking out onto this desert of scrubland, with its dry stone walls and vines planted in pick-hacked holes amid the green oaks with their twisted branches, that he decided to take his passion for wine to its logical extreme by becoming a wine grower himself. Thanks to his hard work in the vines – but also through his formidable enthusiasm for selling and promoting his wine with a talent for forging links that is somewhat uncommon among growers, who enjoy the solitary company of their vines and can be uneasy with commercial relationships – Bizeul would be quick to find success. And this success would enable him to live comfortably and develop his domain by expanding it through the purchase of parcels of land (both already planted and awaiting plantation), hiring workers, buying increasingly advanced equipment and continuing to tour the wine shows of France and the world, proudly flying the flag of his own wines as well as all the others in his region. But if you think Hervé Bizeul has retired his pen, then think again: today, he is among the most prolific contributors to be found in the blogosphere.
