Discover the grape variety: Piquepoul gris

Lively, citrusy whites and pale rosés with a salmon-pale hue, light palate and preserved acidity, showing aromas of citrus (lemon, grapefruit), white flowers and saline mineral notes. Tense, iodine-tinged southern profile. Rarer than Picpoul blanc, it contributes in small quantities to certain Languedoc blends and is attracting renewed interest. Grey-skinned mutation of Picpoul, grown in the Languedoc and southern Rhône.

The wine region of Stellenbosch

Showcase of the South African vineyard: signature Cabernet Sauvignon as king red — structured and age-worthy with notes of blackcurrant, blackberry, cedar, tobacco and a menthol touch, firm tannins. Emblematic national Pinotage (created 1925) opulent and smoky (blackberry, coffee, leather). Fleshy Shiraz, supple Merlot as complement. Vibrant Chenin Blanc, ample Chardonnay and lively Sauvignon in whites.


The wine region of Western Cape

Cradle of South African wine. Signature Chenin Blanc (Steen, 20%) in ample, fresh whites with notes of quince, yellow apple, honey and acacia flower, from crisp dry to sweet. Sharp, iodised Sauvignon Blanc (Walker Bay, Constantia), balanced Chardonnay. Reds: emblematic Pinotage with roasted aromas (coffee, plum, smoke), firm Cabernet Sauvignon, spicy Syrah.

The word of the wine: Gout (wine of)

In red wine making, the wine comes directly from the vat after devatting (see press).
