Discover the grape variety: Mara
Light, fruity reds with a clear ruby robe, smooth tannins and a supple palate of simple red fruits (raspberry, strawberry, cherry), gentle spices and floral notes. A thirst-quenching profile to drink young. Once grown in the South-West, now nearly extinct, preserved in INRAE varietal collections for its genetic value. A rare French grape, witness to the pre-phylloxera ampelographic diversity of the South-West.

The wine region of Forst
Emblematic wine village of the Pfalz (Palatinate) on the Deutsche Weinstrasse between Deidesheim and Wachenheim, with a unique feature: volcanic basalt soils. Riesling is the signature white (~85%): powerful and refined with yellow peach, apricot, candied citrus, white flowers, smoke and a characteristic spiced mineral edge, dense palate and great ageing potential. Mythical Grand Cru sites: Kirchenstück, Jesuitengarten, Ungeheuer, Pechstein. Rare Huxelrebe and Scheurebe for aromatics.
The wine region of Pfalz
Fleshy, dry, fruity Riesling is the region's signature: yellow peach, apricot, ripe citrus, lovely mineral tension. Germany's largest red-wine area (40%), with silky Spätburgunder showing red fruit and spice, darker structured Dornfelder, supple Portugieser. Some rounded Pinot Blanc and Pinot Gris. A 23,640 ha vineyard along the Haardt, among Germany's warmest (>2,000 h of sun).
The word of the wine: Broker
In the past, he was a sort of fraud control agent who had to watch over the quality of merchant wines (he could carry a sword!). His function has evolved towards expertise (it was the brokers who established the famous 1855 classification in Bordeaux) and today he puts the producer in contact with the merchant.
