The wine region of McLaren Vale

South Australian showcase of Mediterranean Shiraz: king red (~60% of the vineyard) powerful and silky with notes of blackberry, plum, dark chocolate, eucalyptus and a touch of sweet spice, velvety tannins and vibrant fruit. Renowned old-vine Grenache (cherry, garrigue, pepper), firm Cabernet Sauvignon and dense Mourvèdre as complement. Fresh Chardonnay and Vermentino in whites. Region 38 km south of Adelaide, Mediterranean climate, among the most geo-diverse soils in the world.


The wine region of Australie du Sud

Cradle of the great Australian Shiraz: powerful, sun-drenched reds with notes of blackberry, candied plum, pepper, chocolate and eucalyptus, ample tannins and vibrant fruit (Barossa, McLaren Vale). Firm, minty Cabernet Sauvignon on Coonawarra (terra rossa). Dry, lemony Riesling from Clare and Eden Valley, straight and taut. Fresh Sauvignon and Chardonnay from Adelaide Hills.

The word of the wine: Assemblage (Champagne)

In Champagne, it is the art of blending still wines from different grape varieties (pinot meunier, pinot noir, chardonnay), from different terroirs (villages, areas) and often from different years. The incorporation of older wines, called reserve wines, allows for greater aromatic complexity.
