France
Region:Rhône - Lirac
Le Fidèle is drawn from carefully selected parcels in Lirac and under the hand of winemaker Guillaume Gonnet. He has created a wine that expresses the warmth and generosity of the southern Rhône. Layers of ripe red berries, wild herbs and subtle spice are supported by supple tannins to create a wine of great balance and structure.
The Winemaker The Winemaker
Guillaume Gonnet
Winemaker Guillaume Gonnet brings an adventurous spirit to everything he does. After honing his craft in Australia and New Zealand, while indulging his passion for surfing, he returned to the Rhône full of fresh ideas. A champion of minimal-intervention winemaking, Guillaume lets each vineyard speak for itself, crafting expressive Grenache-led wines that reflect the remarkable diversity of the Rhône's soils.
"Le Fidèle reflects everything I admire about Lirac. Generous fruit, structure and freshness working in harmony. Gentle winemaking and careful ageing allow the vineyard to speak first, creating a wine that's both powerful and beautifully poised." - Dave Roberts, Wine Buyer.
