Discover the grape variety: Malvoisie de Toscane

It was cultivated in ancient times and is believed to be of Greek origin. In Italy, associated with Trebbiano Toscano, it was used to produce the famous Chianti: these two white varieties are no longer part of the vineyard. In France, Tuscan Malvasia is practically unknown. It should be noted that many grape varieties have "malvasia" as a synonym, so confusion between them is always possible.

The wine region of Alsace

Alsace, located in the extreme north-east of France, is Distinguished from other French wine regions by its strong Franco-Germanic influences. These influences are the result of a back-and-forth between the German and French sovereignties over the last few centuries. They can be seen not only in the architecture and culture of Alsace, but also in the wines. Alsace wines are produced under three main appellations: Alsace and Alsace Grand Cru for still white wines (Sweet and Dry), and Crémant d'Alsace for Sparkling wines.

The word of the wine: Tartar (deposit)

White, chalky deposits that occur as a result of precipitation inside bottles and are often considered by consumers as a defect. They are in fact tartaric salts formed by tartaric acid, potassium and calcium naturally present in the wine. This deposit does not alter the quality of the wine and can be eliminated by a simple decanting.
