From FLâNEUR Intense aromas of fresh red pomegranate and raspberry complement earthy forest floor, leather, white pepper and savory meat. Flavors of macerated strawberries, pomegranate and raspberry are accompanied by a briny olive tapenade, black tea leaves, and cedar wood. Silky and soft, balanced with buoyancy and impressive length.

From LANDRON-CHARTIER Fresh and zesty with hints of stone fruit, pear, apple, and honeydew melon flavors. Straight mineral wine with a gently round mouth. Pleasing saline conclusion.

From DIRUPI Fresh and energized with aromas of strawberry, sweet red cherry, and wild violet. The palate is fresh and soft with silky tannins and a hint of spice.

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.
