Les Caves en Fete (10am- 5pm) will be happening Saturday 2/12 in Faugères, with 11 growers pouring wines plus events (intro to biodynamics, tastings of old vintages and Fine de Faugères, concerts) and dinner prepared by a trio of chefs herault-tourisme.com/fr/fich…

Set against the foothills of the Massif Central, the Faugères vines are wearing their golden mantle #languedoc #faugeres #cebene #wine #organicwine #autumn #vines #vineyards @VinsAOPFaugeres

TRIPLE HONOURS FOR CEBENE IN DECANTER A trio of Domaine de Cébène organic wines with 95-point scores are in @Decanter this month. Cébène fans in the UK can contact our importers @vinetrail @leonstolarski and @jnwine for stockists #Faugeres #AOPFaugeres @VinsAOPFaugeres

British MW @timatkin has published a Languedoc-Roussillon report written by fellow MW Matthew Stubbs, and we're thrilled that 8 Cébène wines are included (Felgaria 2019 = 96 pts!) bit.ly/3MoT65x a bargain at £20! #cebene #faugeres #languedoc #roussillon @VinsAOPFaugeres

The 2023 harvest is coming to a close. Our vines are champions: deeply rooted in the schist rock, they have withstood the challenging weather conditions of recent months, giving us healthy fruit that bears the imprint of their terroir #harvest #harvest2023 #vintage #Faugeres

Delighted to be on this @decanter list of top Languedoc wineries to visit! Thank you Natalie Earl :-) decanter.com/wine-travel/bes… #Faugeres #winetourism #Languedoc #southofFrance #wineries #Languedocwines #winesofLanguedoc @VinsduLanguedoc

The Faugères hillsides are bathed in sunshine. Perched high on a schist outcrop, Domaine de Cébène looks out over Faugères, the Haut-Languedoc area and further afield, the Mediterranean and the Pyrenees #cebene #vines #vineyards #hautlanguedoc #aopfaugeres #SouthofFrance

Live launch of world's most comprehesive database of living historic vineyards with @OurOldVines next Monday June 26! #oldvines #vines #vineyards #oldvineconference

"If I had to name my 5 favourite Faugeres wine estates, (...) Domaine de Cébène would be amongst them. Brigitte Chevalier has been making wine in the region for nearly 20 years now and her wines seem to evolve and improve every time I see her.” bit.ly/42CUTJr

Our sandstone eggs add texture to the wine as it matures (it's constantly in motion and remains in contact with its lees). We use them for our Mourvèdre (for our Felgaria wine) as they allow just the right amount of micro-oxygenation and add elegance #eggs #ageing #maturation

Belle Lurette 2020 (made from 70+ year old Carignan vines) will be at the @OurOldVines OVC Trade & Media Tasting June 14th at @67pallmall (London). 120 old vine wines from Argentina, Armenia, Italy, Turkey, Spain, France, South Africa...! register here bit.ly/45KRtqZ

It's been cloudy recently and we've had a few drops of rain, but not nearly enough. Despite this, the Faugères countryside looks very green... #cebene #faugeres #domainedecebene #brigittechevalier #languedoc #paysdoc #organicwine

Felgaria is a unique combination of Mourvèdre, altitude, and schist rock. Only a few hundred bottles are made each year. It exemplifies the minerality and singularity of the terroir of Faugères. Pair it with local meat, namely Aubrac beef #Mourvedre #wine #altitude #schist

We've been doing some work in the vineyards, digging small hollows by hand around the base of each of the vines planted last year to make the very most of any rainfall we might get #cebene #terroir #faugeres #aopfaugeres #vineyards #organicwine #languedoc #aoplanguedoc
