Fabien Jouves' "Nectar des Dieux" is a fruit forward, thirst-quenching Vin de France from the Cahors region, packed in a party-sized 1-liter bottle.

Inspired by the French concept of vin de soif, or "thirst-quenching wine," this light and juicy red is a departure from the region's typically tannic Malbec. Winemaker Fabien Jouves, a champion of organic and biodynamic farming, crafts this cuvée to be bright, gulpable, and brimming with fresh red fruit.

It's a vibrant, delicious, and low-intervention wine that truly earns its name, which translates to "Nectar of the Gods".

Best served with a chill.

Fabien Jouves is from an old farming family in Causse and became a winemaker in 2006 when he created his first cuvée, “Mas del Périé”, on the highest slopes of Cahors.

Jouves’ estate, 21 hectares in the junction of Quercy and Cahors, was selected to highlight the many expression of Côt. Reinforcing this is Fabien’s commitment to biodynamic viticulture that respects “life, plant, man, and the environment.” Following biodynamic agriculture adds strength to his terroir by supporting the whole environment from the vines to the animals.

The vinification is completely natural without any oenological inputs. His wines are then aged in concrete vats, barrels, or casks, according to its characteristics and personality.
