Discover the grape variety: Abondance
Simple, fresh dry whites with a pale golden robe, a supple palate and moderate acidity. Understated aromas of citrus and alpine white flowers. Rustic, productive profile. Preserved for its heritage value in varietal conservatories, it no longer contributes to commercial production. Not to be confused with the Abondant. An ancient native white grape from Savoy, once grown in Savoy and the Isère valley, now nearly extinct.

The wine region of Mendoza
World capital of Malbec: powerful, deep reds with blackberry, plum, violet and sweet spice, round tannins and vivid fruit. Also firm Cabernet Sauvignon, supple, juicy Bonarda, aromatic floral white Torrontés. High-altitude vineyards (800-1,700 m) at the foot of the Andes, dry continental climate irrigated by glacial waters. ~80% of Argentine output across 150,000 ha.
The word of the wine: Free-run wine
The free-run wine is the wine that flows out of the vat by gravity at the time of running off. The marc soaked in wine is then pressed to extract a rich and tannic wine. Free-run wine and press wine are then aged separately and eventually blended by the winemaker in proportions defined according to the type of wine being made.
