Mas del Périé - Fabien Jouves Malbec Les Escures 2025 Bio

Mas del Périé’s organic Les Escures offers a lighter, more finely drawn take on Malbec from Cahors, with vivid fruit, silky tannins and a mineral edge. Malbec has deep roots in this part of southwest France, where it is also known as Côt; Fabien Jouves’s restrained approach brings out a more delicate side of the region’s signature grape.

Tasting Notes
The supplied notes focus on aroma and flavour rather than appearance. Initially reserved, the nose opens to black cherry, earthy beetroot and wild floral and herbal nuances. On the palate, finely dry fruit meets silky tannins and lively, measured acidity, leading into a long finish with fruit, spice and mineral character. The notes do not specify an ageing window.

Production
The wine comes from a single parcel with rare Kimmeridgian limestone soils, a geological feature better known from Chablis and Champagne than this part of southwest France. It is spontaneously fermented without oenological additives or interventions, and is made without added sulphur. Harvesting methods are not specified in the available information.

Food & Serving
Enjoy Les Escures slightly chilled, as recommended by the producer’s notes. Its fresh fruit and supple texture suit charcuterie, roast poultry, grilled vegetables or mushroom dishes. A short period in a decanter can give the initially reserved aromas time to open, though extensive decanting is unlikely to be necessary.

Producer
Mas del Périé is the estate of Fabien Jouves, whose biodynamic-minded approach favours expressing individual vineyard sites over the heavily extracted style often associated with Cahors. The available information highlights his work with single-parcel fruit and minimal-intervention winemaking, but does not provide further details about the estate’s history or awards.
