Famille Fabre - Équilibre Cabernet Sauvignon
The Famille Fabre domaine dates back 14 generations to 1604 when the wines were made from simple small plots of vines for the family and friends of the area. Fast-forward over four hundred years, and the estate’s growth has not only been impressive, but the focus on quality and respect for the land they have grown into, has grown at even more stunning rates. Louis Fabre became one of the first in the Languedoc to ‘go green’ in 1991 by converting the property to organics, and in 2014 the estate was awarded with the level 3 HVE (high environmental value).
‘A vine that gives must also receive’ - a philosophy that leads the Fabre family to take diverse measures in increasing biodiversity -
The 2020 Équilibre Cabernet Sauvignon is the truest form of Cabernet from the Languedoc region in the south of France, coming from a 3-hectare plot of 20-year-old vines.
The method used to make this wine and without any use of sulfites from start to finish, leads to a gorgeously bright and vibrant expression of the Cabernet grapes. Licorice, blackberry, and tangy spice explode in the nose, while this fresh red gives a soft yet exciting mouth-feel full of black cherry, juicy blackberry, clove, and black pepper.
Pair it with grilled meats, tapas, and desserts (pecan pie, dark chocolate cake).
