Discover the grape variety: Esganoso de Lima

Crisp and lively whites to drink young, with a pale golden robe, an airy and low-alcohol palate with bright acidity on citrus (lemon), green apple, white flowers and fresh herbal aromas. Often blended with Loureiro and Arinto, contributing to the fresh, thirst-quenching character of Vinho Verde DOC wines from north-western Portugal. Autochthonous white variety from the Lima sub-region.

The wine region of Châteauneuf-du-Pape

Pinnacle of great southern Rhône reds, up to 13 blended grapes: signature Grenache as king — powerful and structured with notes of black cherry, kirsch, garrigue, leather, tar and sweet spices, firm tannins when young and gamey complexity with ageing. Deep Syrah, dense Mourvèdre and supple Cinsault complete it. Rare full whites (Grenache Blanc, Clairette, Roussanne) with almond, anise, honeysuckle notes. Legendary AOC (1936), rolled pebbles, mistral and sun.


The wine region of Rhone Valley

France's 2nd-largest AOC vineyard, two complementary worlds. Northern: pure Syrah in signature reds (Côte-Rôtie, Hermitage, Cornas), deep and peppery with blackberry, violet, black olive and smoked bacon notes, exceptional ageing. Opulent Viognier whites (Condrieu, apricot, flowers) and ample Marsanne-Roussanne. Southern: sun-soaked Grenache blends at Châteauneuf, Gigondas, Vacqueyras (candied fruit, garrigue).

The word of the wine: Oenographer

Wine label collector. It is becoming increasingly difficult to obtain the labels of famous vintages, which thus seek to avoid forgeries.
