Les Pépites 2020

You might know Hervé Fabre (below, with wife Diane) as the talented winemaker behind many of our best-selling Argentine wines. But did you know that—like his signature grape variety, Malbec—he’s originally from France? For Les Pépites 2020, Hervé has returned to their shared homeland to prove that Malbec can make truly lovely wines here.

Traditionally, Malbec produced the somewhat harsh “black wines” of France’s Cahors region. But today, winemakers like Hervé are making red wines in a more elegant, accessible style. Hervé has also added a healthy dose of Syrah, another red grape variety native to France, to Les Pépites 2020 for a little extra richness.

As you’d expect from Hervé, whose many awards include the International Wine Challenge’s Red Winemaker of the Year title, Les Pépites is absolutely delicious. Brimming with expressive red berry, licorice and spice notes, it will be a fine choice for a dinner party.
