L’Oubliée

100% MerlotForest terroir9,000 bottles

Vibrant red fruits. Fine tannins. Great drinkability in its youth.

« Deep color. Intense nose of red fruits, floral and Mediterranean notes. The supple palate with relatively fine tannins offers great drinkability in its youth. »

The Spirit of the Wine

« The secret of freshness »

It was in the 2000s that the story of L’Oubliée took root, when my parents came across a plot of land, surrounded by forest and adjacent to several prestigious Bordeaux appellation areas. They immediately saw the untapped potential of this biome with beautiful biodiversity and rich soil. This overlooked place was nevertheless full of freshness and offered a terroir adapted to future climate changes: it would write the genesis of fine wines with bright fruits. As a story is never written without encounters, it was accompanied by the passionate inspirations of Anthony Ollivier, our Wine Merchant, that we were able to restore all the splendor to L’Oubliée.
L'Oubliée was born from a forgotten plot, surrounded by forest. A fresh and preserved terroir, perfectly adapted to future climate challenges.
