Terres Falmet Mourvèdre

Terres Falmet

Mourvèdre 2021

Vin de France

France - Languedoc

Yves Falmet is based in the Languedoc region of France in the Saint-Chinian appellation.
He has fallen under the spell of this authentic place and cultivates his vines like his garden.

In 2001, he planted three plots of Mourvèdre, a total of 4 ha, on his hillsides. This grape variety thrives here because it requires sunshine and water, two elements that it finds naturally on this terroir. A late variety with a tendency to over-ripen in production, it only matures if it is cultivated skilfully and on the rare soils that lend themselves to it.
