Les Pépites 2024

You might know Hervé Fabre 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? Les Pépites showcases his return to the motherland, with plush berry and licorice flavors, and a kiss of spice.

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. (For Les Pépites, Hervé also added a healthy dash of Syrah, another red grape variety native to France, to lend a little extra richness.)

As you’d expect from Hervé, whose many awards include the International Wine Challenge’s Red Winemaker of the Year and a Winemaking Legend title from critic (and Master of Wine) Tim Atkin, the resulting wine is absolutely delicious. Critic James Suckling rated the previous release 90 points, noting its “pleasant and charming” nose, medium body and soft tannins.

Juicy and expressive, it brims with red berry, licorice and spice notes, and will be a fine choice for your next dinner party.
