Mas del Périé - Fabien Jouves Malbec Les Escures 2024 Bio

Mas del Périé Les Escures 2024 is a fresh, finely textured expression of Malbec from Cahors, crafted by Fabien Jouves from organically farmed vineyards. Made as a single-variety wine, it takes a lighter, more elegant path than the traditionally powerful, deeply extracted style often associated with the appellation.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, Les Escures is expected to show a vivid, dark ruby colour rather than the impenetrable, inky appearance of heavily extracted Cahors wines. The nose is marked by fresh blackberry, black cherry and plum, with subtle floral and earthy nuances adding complexity. On the palate, the wine is lively and supple, balancing Malbec’s natural dark-fruit character with bright acidity and restrained structure. Its moderate extraction makes it approachable in its youth, while the freshness should allow it to develop gracefully over the next few years. Compared with more concentrated Cahors, Les Escures offers a particularly light-footed and energetic interpretation of the grape.

Production
The wine comes from Cahors in south-western France, the historic home of Malbec—known locally as Côt or Auxerrois. Produced from organically farmed Malbec, Les Escures reflects Fabien Jouves’ focus on preserving freshness and terroir expression through restrained alcohol and extraction. The available information does not specify the precise soil composition, harvesting method or maturation vessels.

Food & Serving
Serve slightly cool, around 14–16°C, to emphasise the wine’s freshness and supple texture. It pairs well with roast poultry, grilled pork, duck, mushroom dishes, lentils and vegetables from the grill. A short decant of 20–30 minutes may help open the aromas, although the wine should be enjoyable immediately after opening.

Producer
Mas del Périé is the estate of Fabien Jouves, based in Trespoux-Rassiels in the Cahors appellation. The domaine is known for its organic approach and for presenting Malbec in a more vibrant, transparent style, moving away from the region’s historically dense, heavily oaked reds. Through single-variety wines such as Les Escures, Jouves reconnects with a more traditional and naturally expressive character of Cahors.
