Discover the grape variety: Petit Meslier
Crisp, taut dry whites with a pale golden robe, a slender palate and a razor-sharp acidity of discreet citrus (lemon, grapefruit), green apple, white flowers and chalky mineral notes. Ideal profile for sparkling base wines, adding tension and length. A traditional minor component of Champagne AOC, preserved by growers loyal to historic varieties (arbane, pinot blanc, pinot gris). Rare native Champenois grape.

The wine region of New England Australia
New South Wales GI on the Northern Tablelands (Great Dividing Range, 400-1,000 m, among the highest altitudes in Australia, Burgundy-like altitude continental climate, spring frosts): Chardonnay the signature most-planted white — stone fruit character, barrel ageing adding creamy complexity, marked varietal expression. Durif as complement, resistant to moisture-driven fungal pressure from coastal humidity. GI 2008.
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: Chartreuse
