Producer Profile
Wines inspired by the spirit of place - ‘L’esprit de lieu’. The wines of Terres Fidèles are created in the Roussillon and surrounding regions, a place of remarkable stories where layers of history and cultures are embedded in the raw and wild landscape.
Authentic, crafted small batch wines. Wines of the wilds. Old vine Grenache, Carignan, Malbec, Cinsault, Viognier and more. Wines to share..., some of which, namely Felicette, Mont Rocher and Montsablé we have been proudly producing for some time.
Viticulture
The Pinot Noir is harvested from cooler vineyards in the Haute Vallée d'L'Aude Altitude, climate and limestone rich soils combine to produce outstanding fruit, with which we create wines of elegance and freshness.
Winemaking
The grapes slowly ripen in the cooler vineyards and offer a good level of natural acidity. Burgundian influenced methods are used for the vinification with a gentle extraction by punch-down of the cap. Low temperature vatting (24°C) to preserve the fragile and subtle notes of the Pinot Noir. Maturation in stainless steel vats on fine lees with 10% aged for 3 months in new French Oak.
