Tasting notes
The 2021 Domaine du Clos des Fées "La Petite Sibérie" is a commanding and opulent red wine, distinguished by its deep, opaque black color and intensely aromatic nose layered with ripe black fruit, spice, and subtle earthy undertones. On the palate, it delivers remarkable power and depth, yet remains beautifully balanced, with velvety tannins and a rich, full-bodied texture. The finish is exceptionally long and refined, confirming its pedigree as one of the domaine’s most iconic and age-worthy cuvées.
More About The Winery
Founded in 1998 by Hervé Bizeul — former “Best Young Sommelier of France,” wine journalist, and Paris wine bar owner — Domaine du Clos des Fées has become one of the most acclaimed estates in Roussillon. What began with a small, garage-made vintage quickly turned into an international success story, with the wines now sought after by collectors worldwide.
The domaine’s vineyards stretch across diverse terroirs, up to 15 km apart, with exposures and soils ranging from granite to limestone. Many plots feature century-old vines, hand-harvested and farmed with a philosophy of respect for nature.
With plantings focused on Grenache, Carignan, Syrah, Grenache Blanc, and Grenache Gris, Clos des Fées produces wines of remarkable depth, concentration, and finesse. Ageing in oak barriques and bottling without filtration further enhances their character and authenticity.
