"A year's ageing in foudre softens Les Acacias, with hints of wood on the nose and a delicate crispness on the palate. The radiant fruit concludes with a violet finish for a punchy whole." (Le Guide RVF 2024). This wine offers a bouquet of toasty, spicy aromas thanks to its ageing in casks. Its concentrated, gourmet palate reveals notes of black fruit. A fine discovery of Malbec!

Expert opinion
RVF - La Revue du Vin de France / Guide des Meilleurs Vins de France
Wine rated (guide 2024) 93/100
Domaine rated (guide 2022) 1*Star (Stars in the making or quality winemakers with a good level of production, you won't be disappointed when you taste the wines from these estates)
About the wine:
A year's ageing in foudre softens Les Acacias, with hints of wood on the nose and a delicate crispness on the palate. The radiant fruit concludes with a violet finish for a powerful whole.
About the domain :
Fabien Jouves, who works organically on the slopes of Trespoux, the highest area of the appellation, offers a range of refined wines that respect the identity of the terroirs, even to the point of claiming the geological origin on the label of his Burgundy bottles. Offering a contemporary approach, the cuvées have the dual advantage of precision and freshness; however, depending on the type of ageing, there may be a certain coldness in the definition of the materials.

Note and review by M. JEAN-MICHEL P. Published on 26/01/2024
Dark wine with violet to ruby tints. The nose is very interesting, with a predominance of wild berries accompanied by a few animal or toasted notes. On the palate, the wine is very chewy, with enveloping tannins softened by the ripeness of the fruit. A truly pleasurable, full-bodied wine. At 11%, why deprive yourself?
