Capsule from Fabien Jouves is a funny wine. It was probably meant to become a pet-nat but the sugars didn’t fully turn into CO2 and alcohol resulting in an off-dry and slightly sparkling wine. We were blown away by the rich and aromatic flavours. Lots of stuff in there like stone fruits, yellow apple, dried fruits and honey. It has an oxidative note, creaminess and a lovely bread-y finish. Made us wonder wether the grapes had a bit of botrytis.

Tip: Serve it with a cheese platter!

Fabien Jouves

Wine-making at its finest

Fabien Jouves founded his winery ‘Mas del Périé’ in 2006 and he has been farming biodynamically since 2011. The vineyards stretch from the high slopes of Cahors to the hills of Quercy bringing out different characteristics to his wines. The star of the winery is the grape variety Malbec, the selection of Jouve’s Malbecs is in-fact very wide! Every Malbec is different depending on the soil or the altitude or the vinification. Try them all from his elegant line: ‘Vins de Terroir’, presented with the chic white labels . If you feel like something funny and super drinkable try the other line of wines: ‘Vins de Soif’, you’ll recognise them by the joyful labels.
