The domain is run by the talented winemaking partners Ivo Ferreira (formerly of Domaine de l'Escarpolette) and Julie Brosselin. While they manage the organically farmed vineyards together, they maintain friendly independence in the cellar, crafting separate cuvées that reflect their individual winemaking intuition. The Montpeyroux community of growers has become a benchmark for proving that the Languedoc can produce light, fresh, and transparently clear natural wines rather than the heavy, overly extracted styles traditionally associated with the warm region. Following a strict zero-zero framework, everything is fermented spontaneously with native wild yeasts and bottled with zero filtration, zero fining, and absolutely no added sulfur.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Wine\u003cbr\u003eThe 2025 \"La Petite Crapule\" (playfully translating to \"The Little Rascal\") is a brilliantly playful, highly energetic rosé co-ferment engineered to offer ultimate drinkability and thirst-quenching freshness. This vintage leans into an intentional field blend of both red and white grapes: combining the structural red fruit energy of Grenache Noir with the high-toned snap of Grenache Blanc and a highly aromatic lift of Muscat à Petits Grains. Sourced from organic vines rooted in the region's classic clay-limestone soils, the fruit undergoes a gentle, minimal-intervention maceration to capture a pale salmon-pink hue without drawing out heavy, bitter grape tannins. The wine is aged for a brief period in neutral tanks on its fine lees before an early spring bottling. The resulting pale-toned vintage is beautifully light-footed and precise; it masterfully pairs an explosive bouquet of fresh-picked summer berries and citrus rind with an electric alpine acidity and a thirst-quenching, mineral-driven finish.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Les Cigales","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47519172395157,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0571\/1718\/0053\/files\/LesCigalesLaPetiteCrapule2025.jpg?v=1783030842","url":"https:\/\/gcfwines.com\/products\/les-cigales-la-petite-crapule-2025-750ml-chillable-red-wine-bottle-11-abv","provider":"Good Clean Fun","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
