La fantaisie du Conte

La fantaisie du Conte was born in 2020. We did not want to offer a second wine like most of the estates of the great appellations, we made a second vintage with its own universe.

This Saint-Émilion is not a whim on Hugues’ part, it was a desire to create a vintage fundamentally different from other Saint-Émilion wines. It is a cuvée without added sulfur which was aged for 12 months in a Galileo concrete sphere. The goal is to keep all the fruit of the raw material and to protect the wine in a more natural way than sulfur throughout the maturation period. The result is a unique profile in the appellation, a natural tannin structure combined with the deliciousness and fruit of Merlot.
