Discover the grape variety: Brun argenté
Light, fruity reds with a clear ruby robe, smooth tannins and a supple palate, with simple aromas of red fruits (cherry, raspberry), soft spices and Mediterranean notes. Productive, accessible profile, best drunk young. Now marginal, preserved on a few heritage plots in Provence and occasionally contributing to southern red blends. French autochthonous variety from south-east Provence, a witness to ancient Provençal grape varieties.

The wine region of Leelanau Peninsula
Michigan AVA on a peninsula between Lake Michigan and Grand Traverse Bay (45 deg N, latitude of Bordeaux). Riesling reigns as a white star: taut and aromatic with signature notes of white apple, peach, lemon, white flowers and a mineral touch, lively and long palate — from dry to medium-sweet to ice wine. Ample Chardonnay, aromatic Gewurztraminer (lychee, rose). Fine Pinot Noir (cherry, undergrowth) and Gamay emerging.
The wine region of Michigan
Midwestern wine state on the 45th parallel (Burgundy, Piedmont), tempered by the Great Lakes (lake effect). Signature Riesling: precise, taut whites with signature notes of citrus, green apple, white peach, white flowers and saline minerality, crisp acidity - from dry to off-dry. Also ample Chardonnay, perfumed Pinot Gris, opulent Gewürztraminer (lychee, rose). Fresh, silky Pinot Noir in red.
The word of the wine: Aging
Period during which a wine is kept in a cellar where it goes through different phases of evolution of its aromatic range and a maturation of its constituents (evolution of the colour, refining of the tannins, harmonization of the different flavours, etc.). The wine evolves better and less quickly in large containers, whereas it deteriorates prematurely in half-bottles.
