Tasting notes
Age has only deepened the 2008 Domaine du Clos des Fées Red (Côtes du Roussillon Villages) an intense, full-bodied wine that pairs rich black fruit with floral lift and a velvety texture.
The nose unfolds in layers: fresh blackberry, plum, and boysenberry first, then sweet spice, licorice, tobacco leaf, and herbal, floral notes. The palate is rich, juicy, and velvety yet bright, its dense, gripping structure carrying cocoa powder and oaky spice. It closes long and persistent, with a superb concentration of dark berries and herbal liqueur.
More About The Winery
Founded in 1998 by Hervé Bizeul — former “Best Young Sommelier of France,” wine journalist, and Paris wine bar owner — Domaine du Clos des Fées has become one of the most acclaimed estates in Roussillon. What began with a small, garage-made vintage quickly turned into an international success story, with the wines now sought after by collectors worldwide.
The domaine’s vineyards stretch across diverse terroirs, up to 15 km apart, with exposures and soils ranging from granite to limestone. Many plots feature century-old vines, hand-harvested and farmed with a philosophy of respect for nature.
With plantings focused on Grenache, Carignan, Syrah, Grenache Blanc, and Grenache Gris, Clos des Fées produces wines of remarkable depth, concentration, and finesse. Ageing in oak barriques and bottling without filtration further enhances their character and authenticity.
