Chute Libre from Terrain Vague is a red wine with an unusual story rooted in old Carignan vines from Fitou in the Languedoc region. Its journey began when the original 2022 vintage didn't finish fermenting, leaving a bit of residual sugar. To continue the process, the winemaker added freshly harvested Macabeo grapes from 2023, allowing them to soak for two months. This creative approach also included topping up with lees from another cuvée, giving Chute Libre extra character. The result is a light, lively red with a noticeably zesty acidity and a vibrant, fluid texture. It's a playful yet engaging wine that showcases the imaginative style of Terrain Vague, making it perfect for those who enjoy a bright twist on traditional reds.

Merlotov is a rosé from southern France that mixes direct-pressed Merlot with a small touch of Muscat Blanc à Petits Grains. The Merlot is pressed gently, giving a clean, light rosé character rather than a heavy, red-fruit style. It then spends a long time aging in a jar, which helps keep the wine fresh while adding a soft, rounded texture. The Muscat portion doesn’t dominate, but it adds a lifted, slightly floral note and extra brightness on the finish. Overall, it’s a calm, food-friendly rosé with a clear point of view—made in the same spirit as the previous bottling.
