A real Favorite for this cuvée full of fruit and charm, but that's not all! Notes of black fruit, truffle, prune, cedar, and blueberry, a full palate, beautiful acidity, and refined tannins make this a universal wine that will appeal to everyone. Irresistible!

Robin Williamson is English, Liz is New Zealand. In 2004, they found this estate in the Grès de Montpellier to start their new life as winemakers. The estate quickly obtained organic certification, and the diversity of its wines, including sparkling, white, and red, is truly delightful! They have expanded the estate from 6.5 hectares when they first moved in to 14 hectares today. We are delighted to welcome them here.
