Sélection Parcé Frères

The Vineyard

The grapes for this cuvée come from 40-year-old vines rooted in black schist soils on the outskirts of Espira-de-l’Agly, in the heart of the Agly Valley. This rugged, sun-soaked terroir lends Macabeu its natural tension and a refined mineral expression.

The Wine

Hand-harvested at full maturity, the Macabeu is vinified in the traditional way, with a light settling at the end of fermentation to preserve purity of fruit. The wine is aged in tank for five months to maintain the freshness of the grape and the identity of the terroir.

Tasting Notes

From the very first nose, this white reveals a discreet complexity: notes of fresh citrus, white peach, and sweet almond interwoven with a clean mineral edge. On the palate, the balance is striking, combining tension, lightness, and elegance. Straightforward and vibrant, yet convivial, it shines alongside marinated anchovies, aged goat cheeses, or Mediterranean dishes with a touch of the sea.

Description

History is often written by the winners… so when you leaf through the books recently written on the history of Roussillon you will find no trace of the men who refused the policy of standardization concerning the grape varieties. So through these vintages, I wanted to pay tribute to the first “résistants”, to these winegrowers who, since the 1970s, took the risk of no longer being in the appellation, refusing the concept of an improving grape variety in order to preserve their old, often planted, vineyard. Time has proven them right: there are rarely “bad” varieties* but simply a mismatch between the grape variety, the terroir and the winegrower! *Here Macabeu for the white and Carignan for the red, both in vats. Parcels located on the Espira de l’Agly terroir.
