Pernand-Vergelesses organic Chardonnay, distinguished by its freshness and balance. It reveals a golden colour and delicate aromas of white fruits, accompanied by a subtle minerality. No other region in the world is as praised for its ancient knowledge of terroir passed down by monks centuries ago.
Saint-Romain in Cote de Beaune is the foot of a high cliff with enough elevation to look out over a wide stretch of countryside. Soils are from the earliest epoch of the Jurassic period, consisting of shales and limestones rich in fossils as old as 208 million years. The white wines are pale gold with green tinges. Its nose ranges through lime and white flowers with mineral grace notes. Classic for fish.
Handcrafted Grenache with the grape's signature combination of high-toned red fruit and floral notes and punchy high alcohol. This wine comes from Chateauneuf-du-Pape vineyards but is declassified to Vin de France because the appellation favours blended wines.

A barrel-aged sweet wine made using only botrytized Chenin Blanc grapes. It's been over 20 years since the vintage, giving time to slightly subdue the sweetness and develop intriguing tertiary characteristics. Lovers of Sauternes and Tokaji will dig this.
