The Vidal family has been making wine in Faugères for over sixty years and was instrumental in the creation of the appellation in 1982. Today Bernard Vidal is the current custodian of 60 hectares of top Faugères terroir. Despite being one of the smallest appellations in the region, Faugères represents the Languedoc at its very best. La Liquière is the inspiring story of a family who for three generations has strived to extract the very best from this privileged terroir while remaining faithful to their land and their rural roots.

La Gabinele Belandes Minervois 2015
Grenache 40 %, Syrah 60 %
An incredibly expressive bouquet: peony, violet, white pepper, cocoa, eucalyptus and star anise. An impressive palate from the outset with powerful flavour. The body is vibrant, unctuous and sensual leading to a mineral and acid driven finish. With its power and juiciness, Bélandes goes perfectly with braised lamb, roasted rabbit or roast duck.
Reverdito Barolo Bricco Cogni 2016
Vineyard: La Morra
Production: 4,000 bottles
Soil: Marl
From Michele Reverdito’s favourite cru comes Barolo Bricco Cogni, planted by Silvano Reverdito in 1967, the year he was married. An aromatic powerhouse in 2016 with dark cherry, plum, lavender, spice and licorice all melding beautifully together. This is super-impressive in the early going. Truly a Barolo of class and character, the Bricco Cogni has so much to offer.
Reverdito Barolo Badarina 2016
Vineyard: Serralunga d’Alba
Production: 6,000 bottles
Soil: Limestone
This vineyard is characterized by its considerable altitude, which brings noteable freshness to the Nebbiolo grown here. Bardarina is especially powerful in this vintage. Intense black and blue fruit, leather, licorice, smoke and spices meld together for incredibly dense and complex wine backed up by considerable structure. This is a wonderfully complete Barolo that will reveal its greatness in time.
La Cour d’Argent Bordeaux Superieur 2018
"Blended of 95% Merlot and 5% Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2018 de la Cour d'Argent opens with fragrant rose hip and lavender scents over notions of black and red plums with a kirsch undercurrent. Medium-bodied with a firm structure of grainy tannins, it has understated fruit and a restrained finish." - Wine Enthusiast
