A savourer sur une cuisine exotique et épicée. Il joue parfaitement sur les associations « sucré - salé » et les poissons (thon aux poivrons, saumon fumé à l’aneth…), gambas au curry, tajine au citron, grillades...<br/>

Rated estate Award-winning wines (This producer's wines are regularly recognized by the guide)
About the estate:
François Collard is a regular in the Guide, with his wines often ranking highly. Established in 1994, he began bottling wines from the family vineyards (65 hectares certified organic since 2014) under two labels: Mourgues du Grès, which belonged to the Ursuline convent of Beaucaire until the Revolution, and La Tour de Béraud, named after a 14th-century watchtower Never short on ideas, the Collard couple invites visitors to explore every facet of the estate via a marked trail equipped with Bluetooth markers.
