Maya Sallée et Nicolas Fernandez

Maya Sallée ans Nicolas Fernandez from La Calmette Estate embodies Cahors' resurgence. After graduating from their agronomist studies in Toulouse, they've travelled all around the world and pilled up about 15 years worth of winegrowing knowledge by themselves, as they went to Uruguay, the Mouton-Rotschild Vineyard and the Opus One Estate, passing by Mexico and New Zealand as well as the Château Margaux and... Lionel Gauby! In other words, eclectic journey that brings Maya and Nicolas to incrementally wish to create their one vineyard or not. Their searches were focused gathered on the South-West and in 2015, their encounter with Fabien Jouves was decisive. After tasting Fabien's wines, they are convinced that the Causse's terroir, especially the Trespoux-Rassiels' soils, are suitable for a definition of each parcel. The challenge is on! In 2016 La Calmette's first vintage is successful! From the next vintage on, they farm and vinify 7 hectares, using the organic and biodynamics principles. Largely praised cuvées.

A red sparkling Pet Nat? That's original. Made of Malbec?? Now that’s different! A nose of small black berries, bright fruit, and redcurrant... The palate is fresh and clean, without residual sugars, and a fine bubble that reveals a finish with light tannins. One of our favourites!

A rare bottle and a true favourite at the tasting. Powerful, complex nose with notes of flowers, apricot, toasted almond and spice. The palate is rich—more so than in 2021—yet vibrant and long, with a delicate finish hinting at walnut and curry.

This is not a wine! That's the first sentence that you can read on the back label. A cheerful and joyful drink, a tribute to the piquette, this thirst-quenching, refreshing and low-alcohol juice, rustic and delicate at the same time, like a syrup for adults.

Complex nose of black cherry, pastry cream, and a smoky touch... The texture is intense, with fine, vibrant tannins. Aromatics of fig leaf and menthol bring great length and a beautifully layered mid-palate. The finish is delicate and mouthwatering. Decant in its youth for full expression.
