Discover the grape variety: Velteliner vert

Lively, structured dry whites with a pale golden robe, an ample palate with preserved acidity, and signature aromas of citrus (lime, grapefruit), white pepper, crisp vegetables (radish, rhubarb) and typical mineral notes. Also great age-worthy whites. Star of the Kamptal, Kremstal and Wachau DAC appellations; a strong expression of Austrian wine identity. French synonym for Grüner Veltliner, Austria's most planted emblematic white variety.

The wine region of Hunter Valley

Cradle of Australian viticulture (1825), 160 km north of Sydney. World signature: dry low-alcohol Sémillon (10-11°) with fresh citrus notes in youth, evolving after 10-15 years to candied lemon, toast, honey and beeswax, spectacular ageing. Medium-bodied "Hunter style" Shiraz, supple and earthy (leather, plum, sweet spices), capable of decades. Also Chardonnay and Verdelho.


The wine region of Nouvelle-Galles du Sud

Australia's 2nd wine state with diverse regions. Iconic Hunter Valley: a Sémillon unlike any other, straight, low-alcohol dry whites with vivid citrus when young, evolving over 10-20 years toward honey, toast and lanolin. Medium-bodied Hunter Shiraz, spicy and earthy (leather, red fruits). Also round Chardonnay and aromatic Verdelho.

The word of the wine: Côte des Blancs

One of the most famous terroirs of the Champagne region, from Épernay to Vertus, mainly devoted to Chardonnay, hence its name. The villages of Chouilly, Cramant, Cuis, Mesnil-sur-Oger, Avize, etc., lying on the chalk, are in a way to Champagne what Meursault, Chablis and Puligny are to Burgundy.
