Faugères from Frédéric Brouca

Last month we were honoured to host an exclusive Pop-up with our favourite man from Faugères.  His wines are truly unique and are a real testament to the terroir of the region.  

Available now, but only for a limited time, we have the final cases of the following wines.

 

2013 was the inaugural vintage for Domaine Frédéric Brouca. Frédéric and his wife Elaine, purchased 25 acres of vines in Faugères in the Languedoc region in 2012. Faugères is famous for its schist soil and moderate Mediterranean climate. The vineyards of DFB have been certified organic since 1997 with the majority of vines being 30+ years old.

 

 

The estate is run with a Burgundian philosophy; precise focus on the terroir of each vineyard down to the individual vine. Frédéric picks his grapes earlier than other wineries in the area to ensure freshness and to avoid overripe flavors and high alcohol levels. All harvesting is done by hand and gravity fed in the winery. The grapes are fermented using only native yeasts. Neutral oak and minimal use of  sulfur ensure the wines to retain their character. These wines are made with the care and precision of wines that are many times their price.  2500 cases produced.
