Discover the grape variety: Rhoditis
Fresh, fruity whites and light rosés best enjoyed young, with a pale salmon robe, an airy palate with preserved acidity, and signature aromas of citrus (lemon), green apple, white flowers and herbal notes. Also the traditional base for resinated Retsina. Grown in the Peloponnese, Macedonia and Attica for modern dry Greek whites. Greek autochthonous grey grape with pink skin, one of the most planted varieties in Greece.

The wine region of Gaillac
Millennia-old South-West mosaic (banks of the Tarn) with rare native grapes: Mauzac reigns in whites — dry, pearled or sweet with notes of apple, pear, honey and white flowers, signature freshness. Ample Loin-de-l'œil and Ondenc complement. Duras in spicy, peppery reds, fleshy Braucol (Fer Servadou) (blackcurrant, raspberry, blackberry, structured tannins) and Syrah in blends. Iconic ancestral-method Gaillac sparkling.
The wine region of South West
French mosaic of strong identities south of Bordeaux. Cahors and its Malbec ("black wine"): deep reds with notes of blackberry, plum, violet, tobacco and cocoa, firm tannins. Madiran and its dense, age-worthy Tannat. Jurançon whites: golden sweet (apricot, honey, pineapple) and lively dry from Petit Manseng.
The word of the wine: Varietal
Said of wine aromas that are reminiscent of fresh grapes. The most demonstrative example is certainly that of wines made from the Muscat grape variety.
