The wine

La Boda is the blend of the domain’s two exceptional terroirs: Aupilhac (clay-limestone soils) and Les Cocalières (volcanic amphitheatre). The grapes are harvested by hand and macerate for 15 to 20 days with frequent punching down. This wine is raised in 300 litre barrels for 25 months. This blend thus combines the freshness of the Cocalières with the power of Aupilhac. A wonderful wine with spicy, chocolatey notes and black fruits. Taste with characterful meats.

Information about domain Aupilhac

Sylvain Fadat and his wife Désirée both have an obsession with vines and terroir. They founded their domain in Montpeyroux, some thirty kilometres north-west of Montpellier, a little over twenty years ago. Their 22-hectare vineyards are planted on two very different terroirs: the south-west-facing terraces of the Aupilhac lieu-dit, and the Les Cocalières site – higher, and therefore cooler – where Syrah is so much at home, and therefore dominates. The northernmost part is home to white grapes (Roussanne, Marsanne, Grenache Blanc and Rolle). Here, both the landscape and the wines have been shaped by human hands; ploughing, manual harvesting, minimal intervention, bottling without filtration: everything possible is done to preserve the identity of the terroir as much as possible.
