On prend le même terroir que pour le Bourboulenc du Terres Salées blanc. Ce Merlot d'une ciquantaine d'années est également cultivé sur un hectare d'ancien marais salant au pied du massif de la Clape à Fleury d'Aude. Cette parcelle doit donc être inondée chaque hiver pour éviter les remontées de sel qui seraient fatales à la vigne. Ces conditions néfastes à la présénce du phylloxera ont permis de ne pas utiliser de porte-greffe (franches de pied, comme on dit). Depuis une demi-siècle, les racines ont eu le temps de coloniser sol et sous-sol.
Autant dire que la maturité du Merlot est assurée. En même temps l'air marin apporte une fraîcheur bienvenue, et le sous-sol de belles notes ... salines !
L'extraction durant la fermentation se fait uniquement par pigeage afin de n'avoir que le meilleur des tannins. Puis le vin est entonné en barriques où il fera sa "malo". Il restera ainsi sur lies durant 7 mois. Puis il est soutiré et placé en barriques neuves pour 5 mois supplémentaires.
Le vin est donc à déconseiller aux personnes "allergiques" aux vins boisés. Par contre, si vous appréciez les Bordeaux mordernes, vous devriez adorer ce vin riche et velouté, bien mûr, avec un élevage présent mais bien intégré, et surtout une finale puissante d'une grande salinité.
Un carafage d'une journée ne lui fait pas peur, bien au contraire. L'idéal est de le servir sur une épaisse côte de boeuf au BBQ.

What is an author wine?
This can be so diverse depending on the personality of their sire, that it is easier to define what it is not. An author wine is anything but a standard, stereotypical wine, made to please as many people as possible. It is therefore rarely produced in millions of copies, copying itself from vintage in vintage.
An author wine is therefore a wine that does not look like that of the neighbor. Which from year to year will evolve according to the vagaries of the weather and the mood of the author - the two that can be linked. Because the author does not rely on market studies to carry out his boat. He makes his wine as he feels, as he likes, as he can, sometimes ... and too bad if he does not please everyone.
This is why author wines are sometimes classified as "table wine" or "France wine". Because the winemaker did not plan the authorized grape variety*, makes the assembly or vinification recommended in the name **. He is often a bit rebellious, our author. But that is why we like it! ... That said, author's wines are not systematically marginal: they are present in most of the appellations, and can be part of the elite of these this***. Because they are not content to have personality: they are good, in addition! With in general aDegree of TorchabilityVery high: we never tire of it at the end of the first sip.
As author's wines are not chaptalized, levied, hacked ... They can have very different profiles depending on the vintage. It is up to us (resellers and consumers) to accept them as they are, and to remain faithful to the producers, because they need us to continue their activity.
