Fioretti

€20.00

Savour the juice of 40-year-old malbec vines planted in the iron-rich clay and limestone soils at Ostal Levant, that miraculous escaped the frost in 2023. The result is a mineral-driven malbec with a subtle nose: little flowers escaping from the pages of fairytales. A malbec montgolfier with an air of somewhere much higher up. Cool and peppery, yet earthy and petrichor-y on elderberries, plums, blackberry leaves and early morning sun.

De-stemmed and macerated for 10 days. 4 days in steel tanks before racking into neutral barrels. A délice.

About the winemaker

Olstal Levant is a sublime place is a sublime place at the end of winding road, on top of a woody hill, above the Lot near Puy L’Evêque. An abandoned farm, charged with history, lovingly restored by Louis and Charlotte Pérot over the last 10 years. Formerly in the book business in Paris, these two natural wine devotees, inspired by the ethics and emotions they evoke, moved to the Lot in 2012 to raise their family and retrain as winemakers. Their’s is a holistic life infused with culture in every sense of the word. They have 15 different wines to choose from, interesting grapes, sensitive wines from small, individual plots. You can sense the caring and the wines speak a different language to the one you usually hear in Cahors.
