"Made from Grenache Blanc (80%) and Grenache Gris grapes, aged in reused barrels, this is a round, rich, and smooth white wine with a mineral finish." (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2019) This round and smooth white wine pairs perfectly with white meats in sauce and Mediterranean dishes. A beautiful white wine for fine dining!

About the estate:
The Grier family, owners of a vineyard in South Africa renowned for its sparkling wines, established this 25-hectare estate in the Fenouillèdes region in 2006. They entrusted its management to Raphël Graugnard, who brings all his experience to bear in producing wines that symbolize the successful union of the Old and New Worlds.
