This is the home of Ollier-Taillefer, a domain run by siblings Luc and Françoise Ollier. Their parents bottled their first wine in the mid-1970s (before their vows, he was an Ollier and she was a Taillefer), having come from four generations of growers in the region. The oldest vines Luc and Françoise farm today are Carignan, growing in a parcel planted by their great grandparents in 1910. These grapes go into their Grande Réserve cuvée. Luc joined Domaine Ollier-Taillefer in 1990. Eleven years later he took the viticulture on a sustainable path under the umbrella of the Terra Vitas agency. In 2003, after eleven years as the director of the Faugères syndicate, Françoise joined Ollier-Taillefer. In 2009 they went organic with their farming and the domain received certification three years later. In 2012, with limestone from a quarry near the Pont du Gard, they built a new and quite beautiful cellar that uses a geo-thermal heat exchange to cool and heat the building. It backs up against a hillside, with its roof covered by a deep layer of soil for added insulation, and fundamental operations within are handled by gravity. All water used is captured and recycled. They farm 36 hectares (89 acres) of vines broken out among 50 parcels, each hand-harvested. A good half of that surface grows between 300 and 350 meters around Fos. The altitude automatically results in lower yields. It also allows them to make wines with high-toned aromatics and moderate alcohols (Grenache at their altitudes ripens fully at 13.5 degrees, whereas down off the ridge at Antugnac, along the southern border of the appellation, similar ripeness translates into 14.5 to 15 degrees–an enormous difference). The resulting wine springboards right into the verdant lushness of garrigue that so characterizes the best of Languedoc’s wines and that Faugères captures so succinctly. Schist is an acidic soil but paradoxically produces wine with relatively low acid levels. That deficit, such as it is, is compensated for by the lift of minerality imparted by the schist into its wine. Ollier-Taillefer’s high elevation takes this one step further, making for wines with particularly fine balance between ripe fruit and degrees of alcohol. This is strikingly apparent in their flagship, the Grande Réserve, raised in tank and unencumbered by wood, a wine bursting with pure finesse.\u003cbr\u003e","published_at":"2023-10-16T12:28:40-04:00","created_at":"2023-10-15T12:34:14-04:00","vendor":"CaskCartel.com","type":"Wine","tags":["Country_France","NK1510","Other_Wine","Producer_Domaine Ollier Taillefer","Region_Languedoc-Roussillon","Source_WineOnlineDelivery1023","Type_Red Wine","Varietal_Red Blend"],"price":13895,"price_min":13895,"price_max":13895,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":43869971153034,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":null,"requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"2018 | Domaine Ollier Taillefer | Faugeres Les Collines","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":13895,"weight":5443,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":null,"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/12_f1d47225-894d-4d50-a3f0-da14b803de48.jpg?v=1697387694"],"featured_image":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/12_f1d47225-894d-4d50-a3f0-da14b803de48.jpg?v=1697387694","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"2018 | Domaine Ollier Taillefer | Faugeres Les Collines at CaskCartel.com","id":25302102507658,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.439,"height":5247,"width":2304,"src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/12_f1d47225-894d-4d50-a3f0-da14b803de48.jpg?v=1697387694"},"aspect_ratio":0.439,"height":5247,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/12_f1d47225-894d-4d50-a3f0-da14b803de48.jpg?v=1697387694","width":2304}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eRed Wine: 2018 | Domaine Ollier Taillefer | Faugeres Les Collines\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNose of fresh red fruits.
