Discover the grape variety: Aubin blanc

Simple, fresh, dry whites for early drinking with a pale golden hue, supple palate and moderate acidity, showing discreet aromas of citrus and white flowers typical of Lorraine. Light, thirst-quenching profile. Sensitive to powdery mildew, preserved by growers of the Côtes-de-Toul AOC in Lorraine. Native Lorraine white grape, a cross of Pinot noir × Gouais blanc, thus related to Chardonnay and Aligoté, grown in Rozérieulles, Bruley and Bulligny.

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.
