Details and technical informations about Winery Parcé Frères's 46 Ans d'Élevage Rivesaltes.
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 word of the wine: Table wine
Everything that is not VQPRD (European designation for all appellation wines: quality wine produced in a specific region). In principle, the bottom of the ladder. But, as in Italy a decade ago (Vino da Tavola), this category is also a refuge for wines that are out of the ordinary, whose producers refuse to accept certain grape variety or vinification dictates.
