From STEFANO ACCORDINI It is known as a wine in the middle between Amarone and Recioto because the bitter taste is finely covered from sweetness, so the characteristic flavor of Cherry under spirit and bitter Almond are clearly perceived that convey cozy and velvety feelings.

From LES VIGNERONS D’ESTEZARGUES The nose is concentrated , with an explosion of yellow fruits and honey. On the palate it is round, smooth, and slightly waxy while still maintaining a freshness not often found in white Rhône varietals.

From MOSNEL A deeply-fragrant rosé whose crisp, graceful Chardonnay finds its delicious complement in the fruit-rich depth of Pinot Noir and the supple roundedness of Pinot Blanc. Its gold-edged, powder-pink hue hints at fresh picked redcurrants and cherries on the nose, which then develop into ultra-crisp apricot and wild strawberry, peony petals and blood oranges, plus a subtle vein of fresh almond and cotton candy. It opens generously, warm, and full in the mouth, with energy-laden impressions of succulent, fresh picked pomegranate and red apple.

From CHATEAU LAUBARIT A wine full of dark berries, pure cocoa nibs, plums and baking spices, though no oak is used. Medium density with juicy tannins, this is a great low sulphur, clean Bordeaux made on the vine with limited cellar influence.
