Non seulement les cuvĂ©es 100 % Bourboulenc ne courent pas le vignoble, mais celle-ci provient d'une parcelle d'un hectare plantĂ©e sur un ancien marais salant de Fleury d'Aude, au pied du massif de la Clape. Cette parcelle doit donc ĂȘtre inondĂ©e chaque hiver pour Ă©viter les remontĂ©es de sel qui seraient fatales Ă la vigne. Ces conditions nĂ©fastes Ă la prĂ©sĂ©nce du phylloxera ont permis de ne pas utiliser de porte-greffe (franches de pied, comme on dit). Les vignes sont aujourd'hui ĂągĂ©es d'une cinquantaine d'annĂ©es. Autant dire que les racines ont eu le temps de coloniser sol et sous-sol.
Tout cela se ressent dans ce vin : du gras et de la fraßcheur avec une belle matiÚre bien mûre et une longue finale saline.
La vinification et la fermentation en barriques neuves apportent une touche toastée/grillée dans la jeunesse du vin. Celui-ci demande 4/5 ans pour digérer le boisé. Votre patience sera récompensée : vous obtiendrez alors un vin splendide qui n'aura rien à envier à des vins 3-4 fois plus chers !
Le Bourboulenc est le plus vieux cĂ©page implantĂ© dans le vignoble de la Clape. Aujourdâhui AOC rĂ©putĂ©e pour ces rouges, elle ne produisait quâexclusivement des blancs depuis lâarrivĂ©e des Romains il y a plus de deux mille ans. La Narbonnaise Ă©tait alors la deuxiĂšme ville de lâEmpire aprĂšs Rome et la Clape une Ăźle.

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.
