Domaine Faillenc Sainte Marie Corbieres 2021 jura and work in the cellarDomaine Faillenc has the ruins of a roman winery on the property. We dont know for sure how good the wine was, but people in what later became Corbieres clearly didnt stop making wine, and the Domaines modern era began in the seventeenth century when a soldier serving Louis XIV returned home planted a vineyard outside the tiny village of Douzens. Today, its just 8 hectares of Syrah, Grenache, and Cinsault planted on stony soils. Dominique and Maria
