Anna Rubio et Jean-Benoît Vivequain
La Voluta is the project of Anna Rubio and Jean-Benoît Vivequain, based in Cucugnan in the Hautes-Corbières. The estate farms around 7 hectares of vines, including old Grenache Noir, Carignan and Syrah, alongside more recent plantings of Macabeu and Grenache Gris. Vineyard work is artisanal and carried out by hand whenever possible, with each intervention considered in terms of its necessity and impact on the surrounding ecosystem. The same philosophy guides the cellar, where simple, low-intervention winemaking aims to preserve the qualities of the grapes. La Voluta also stands out for its refusal to follow fixed recipes: cuvées can evolve from one bottling to another, and some are not repeated, leaving considerable room for experimentation.
