About the estate:
The European pond turtle, a nod to those fighting to protect endangered species, is often featured on the labels of the Uby estate (both vineyard and wine merchant), founded in 1956. At the helm of this vast vineyard (300 ha) since 1995, François Morel has implemented numerous initiatives focused on environmental stewardship and, for the wine merchant division, selects partners who supply organic grapes.

Review by Mr. CEDRIC G. Posted on April 24, 2013
An excellent wine!! An explosion of exotic fruits, smooth and pure pleasure. It’s every bit as good as its more famous neighbor—and, objectively speaking, it’s even better made! Drink it with your eyes closed.

Review by Mr. FREDERIC B. Published on September 26, 2012
Very similar to the Uby Colombard Ugni Blanc. The nose offers aromas of grapefruit, and the palate is balanced, long, and fruity; it offers good to very good value for the money, depending on the vintage.
