Tasting notes
Domaine du Clos des Fées “De battre mon cœur s’est arrêté” is a bold, high-altitude Syrah-based red bursting with intensity and precision. It opens with vibrant aromas of blackberries, wild raspberries, violets, licorice, and cracked black pepper. On the palate, it’s full-bodied yet fresh, with juicy red and black fruit, fine-grained tannins, and a core of smoky, graphite-like minerality. The texture is sleek and energetic, with a long, savory finish marked by garrigue herbs and crushed rock. A powerful yet refined wine that reflects its schist and granite terroir in the Roussillon hills.
