Orée Sauvage Merlot, Pays D'Oc, France, 2024

Producer Profile

Over the last two decades we’ve been creating wines in the wilds of southern France

Embarking on adventures; exploring, discovering and rediscovering remarkable places and vineyard sites. From the foothills and valleys beneath the iconic Pyrénées, out through the gorges to the coastal areas of the Mediterranean. We’ve journeyed with our friends and exceptional growers, who excel at their craft and have an inherent respect for the land that they and theirs are a part of. It is these people and places that inspire our winemaking. The wines of Terres Fidèles are designed to express the spirit of this extraordinary place, old vine Grenache, Carignan, Malbec, Cinsault, Viognier and more, that are authentically crafted, small batch wines of the wilds.

Viticulture

We chose a special place to explore many years ago. Roussillon is a place of remarkable stories where layers of history are embedded in the raw and wild landscape. There have been many journeys through its gorges and valleys by people from many cultures. We respect what’s gone before and have a responsibility to protect yet share its spirit. Historic, old vines, low yields and with sustainability in mind.
