"An icon of Roussillon"
Already well known, the La Petite Sibérie cuvée has become an icon of the Roussillon region. Produced from a small plot of old vines, this Grenache-dominated wine captivates from the first sniff with its notes of vanilla, blackberry or blackcurrant compote, and blueberry tart. The palate reveals fine, delicate tannins, enveloped in a veil of freshness and delightful character. A wine that can be kept for over fifteen years and will leave you with lasting memories.

About the estate:
Hervé Bizeul, winemaker and rebellious writer, has little left to prove, as his estate is among the elite of Roussillon. That doesn't stop him from continually questioning himself, exploring new avenues, innovating, thinking outside the box, and creating new vintages. This is particularly evident in his Pinot Noir, which came out of nowhere and bravely faces the harsh sun and tramontane winds of the Agly Valley. Here, each cuvée has its own distinct personality, sometimes uncompromising, just like its winemaker. No fewer than seven different terroirs give rise to a serious and diverse interpretation of Roussillon. A model of its kind.
