ABOUT THE PRODUCER
About Super Glou & Fond Cyprès Rouge
Super Glou & Fond Cyprès Rouge is a mouth-watering, lip-smacking bottling of 100% Cinsault, from a parcel chosen for its ability to ripen at a low degree of alcohol. There’s a lot of finesse here, coupled with an almost athletic length: “cerise en nez et cerise en bouche [cherry on the nose, cherry on the palate]… ça pinote [acts like a Pinot].” Made exclusively for Super Glou and inspired by their house cat Lamont, who, if a person, would lounge around all day slurping this.
About Fond Cypres
From the Brigitte Bardot of Corbières and her endearing husband come the wines of Fond Cyprès, a soulful, luscious lineup of Carignan, Syrah, Grenache, Grenache Blanc, Roussanne, Viognier, Muscat, Cinsault and blends thereof.
The couple, whose real names are Laetitia Ourliac & Rodolphe Gianesini, is intent on producing wines that express their sultry slice of the Languedoc — specifically, Escales, in the northernmost part of the Corbières AOC. Their domaine begins at the end of a road lined with Cypress trees and extends in either direction across 15ha of lush vegetation, a secret garden of olives, tomatoes, eggplants, wild herbs, and newly-born kittens.
