A juicy, high-altitude French Malbec with real freshness and flair.
This isn’t your usual heavyweight Malbec. Grown in the cool climate of the Haute Vallée de l’Aude, it’s brighter, fresher and more fragrant. Expect aromas of crushed blueberries and crème de cassis, with subtle floral hints and a whisper of cocoa. The palate is all about vibrant red fruit – think cranberry and red plum – with a juicy lift and a gently dry finish. All the rich fruit you’d expect from Malbec, but lighter on its feet – a modern take from the cooler foothills of the Pyrenees.

“This is Malbec with a twist – lighter, cooler and bursting with freshness. It’s got the fruit and structure you want, but with a bit more elegance and zip. Ideal for those who love Malbec but want something a bit more food-friendly and versatile.”
Les Volets is a range of wines crafted by winemaker Guillaume Létang, with a focus on cooler terroirs in the south of France. The name means “shutters” – like the classic wooden shutters found on village houses in this part of the world – and each wine is designed to reflect the character and climate of its region.
The fruit for this Malbec comes from the lesser-known area of Pays Cathare, near Carcassonne and Limoux. Here, the altitude and argilo-calcaire soils give elegance and lift to the wine. While Malbec is often bold and used for blending, Guillaume lets the variety shine here with minimal oak and maximum purity. It's sustainably grown and certified to the highest environmental standard (HVE3).
A joyful, expressive Malbec that shows what cooler-climate French winemaking can do. Smooth, fruity, and refreshingly different – it’s the kind of bottle you’ll want to keep in easy reach.
