Ollier Taillefer Faugeres Clos Des Murettes
| Vintage: | 2019 |
|---|---|
| Description: | The villages of Faugres and Fos and their vineyards are the highest in the appellationas high as 350 metersand Fos is the most remote in the far northeast corner of the delimited area. This is the home of Ollier-Taillefer, a domain run by siblings Luc and Franoise Ollier. Their parents bottled their first wine in the mid-1970s (before their vows, he was an Ollier and she was a Taillefer), having come from four generations of growers in the region. The oldest vines Luc and Franoise farm today are Carignan, growing in a parcel planted by their great grandparents in 1910. These grapes go into their Grande Rserve cuve. Labeled as Les Collines until the 2018 vintage, this is hand-harvested, raised in tank, a wine that speaks transparently of schist and its dark depths; long, lithe, and deliciously Languedocien. Production averages 5,500 cases. |
