Discover the grape variety: Ruländer
Structured, aromatic whites in dry, sweet and botrytised styles, with a golden to amber robe and a rich, ample palate with fine acidity. Signature aromas of yellow fruits (pear, apricot, quince), honey, soft spices, candied fruits and brioche notes. Grown in Germany (Baden, Palatinate), defining great German whites for ageing. German synonym for Pinot Gris (Grauburgunder), a grey-skinned mutation of Burgundy's Pinot Noir.

The wine region of Val de Loire
France's most diverse vineyard, 800 km along the Loire (~48,300 ha). Flagship whites: lively, mineral Sauvignon from Sancerre-Pouilly (citrus, boxwood, gunflint), Loire Chenin from vibrant dry to noble sweet wines (quince, honey, taut acidity), Melon de Bourgogne of saline Muscadet on lees. Cabernet Franc reds (Chinon, Bourgueil, Saumur-Champigny): raspberry, bell pepper, graphite, silky tannins. Sparkling Cremants with brioche-apple notes.
The word of the wine: Bleeding
Old practice for red wines. As soon as the vat is filled with grapes, the tap is opened. A sweet but clear juice escapes from the vat (it can also be used to make rosé). The colour and density of the juice is enhanced, but it should not be overdone. Rarely more than 10% of the volume of a vat, otherwise you risk losing fruit and bringing in bitterness.
