🍷 A rare find from the cellar!

I've uncovered a limited number of bottles of Domaine NJC 2022 Dry White Muscat, and once they're gone, they're gone.

This beautifully aromatic wine offers delicate notes of lychee, orange blossom, and Turkish delight, balanced by a crisp, dry finish that keeps you coming back for another sip.

Those who know it already love it. If you haven't had the pleasure yet, this is the perfect opportunity to discover why it's such a favourite.

If you'd like to secure a bottle (or two), send me a message before they disappear! 🥂 €14/bottle

Sustainability in the vineyard starts with working alongside nature.

Today at Domaine de Capiès, we're harvesting stinging nettles to create one of our own natural vineyard fertilisers. Combined with comfrey grown in our raised beds and horsetail responsibly foraged near the vines, these plants are transformed into a fermented liquid fertiliser rich in nutrients.

Applied as a foliar spray, this natural preparation helps nourish our grapevines and supports their own natural resilience and immune defences. By producing our own plant-based fertilisers, we reduce our reliance on external inputs and continue our commitment to low-impact, sustainable viticulture.

Every healthy vine begins with healthy soil and a thriving ecosystem. 🍇🌿

Found this beauty the other day….In Australia we would call her a ‘paddock basher’…. Don’t know if there is a French equivalent……

J’ai trouvé cette beauté l’autre jour… En Australie, on appellerait ça une “paddock basher”… Je ne sais même pas s’il existe un équivalent français…

Travelling to our vineyards in Lesquerde, we pass through the dramatic gorge along Rue de la Fou, where spring transforms the landscape. Water cascades from the rocks as seasonal rainfall combines with the warmer temperatures melting snow high in the Pyrenees. Below, the River Agly flows stronger once again after a long period of unusually low water levels.
Although water restrictions still remain in some communes across the Pyrénées-Orientales, this year’s spring rains have brought a welcome sense of relief. After three years of severe drought, the return of flowing rivers, replenished reservoirs, and greener hillsides has been especially important for the region’s farmers, vineyards, and local communities. The changing seasons in southwest France are always striking, but this spring feels particularly significant — a reminder of how closely life here depends on the rhythms of weather and water.

THE THINGS YOU FIND!
Found a plaster sculpture of a woman’s face at my local dump…. a bit battered and worse for wear. Some TLC, a few coats of rattle can ‘Antique Bronze’ with ‘Copper’ highlights….and look what we have! ‘Libera’, the female counterpart to Bacchus now overseas all winemaking production in the cellar!

🌿 From vine to soil, and back again 🌿

At our vineyard, nothing goes to waste. We’re proud to create our own organic compost, transforming grape skins, stems, and natural materials into rich, living soil.

This closed-loop approach not only nourishes our vines naturally, but also helps us care for the land we call home—reducing waste, enhancing biodiversity, and supporting healthier harvests year after year.

Here is our latest batch of Consoude or Comfrey, which will be incorporated into our latest batch of fertilzer along with Stinging Nettles and Horsetail harvested from the woodlands that surround the vineyards.

Great wine starts in the soil 🍇
