Under the Radar: Bergerie de l'Arcade - Detailed & Delicious Languedoc

Domaine La Bergerie de l'Arcade is a small six-hectare estate located in Pouzols, in Languedoc, run by brothers Pascal and Gilles Soulas, who come from a family of fruit tree farmers. They started in 2012 with the acquisition of vineyards from famed actor Gérard Depardieu, situated in the heights of the legendary Aniane region, in the village of Pouzols.

Mentored by the late Laurent Vaillé of Grange des Peres, they released their first vintage in 2016, and quickly developed their own nuanced style.  The wines were picked up by the French press almost immediately and since then, are very sought after in France.

A blend of Syrah, Grenache, and Mourvedre, the rouge is fully destemmed and aged for 12 months in oak barrels followed by 10 months in vats, resulting in a wine of great finesse combined with sunny ripeness.  Just recently tasting these wines again, we were impressed with their detail and complexity.  We are pleased to offer this hidden gem.
