Levity, pretty, approachable.

A blend of 50.50 Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon, Fleur is a pretty wine with notes of honeysuckle and gooseberry, sliced oranges, elderflower leaf and vanilla. It has good concentration and levity with flavours of lime zest, dried pineapple and marzipan. Slick and approachable, it's a perfect wine for fish, salads and fresh cheeses.

Arriving fall of 2023 this 100% traditionally-made Semillon brut cremant suggests aromas of yellow and white tree fruits, bright citrus and melon, white flowers and honey. It's off-dry and juicy with oodles of tree fruit and floral flavours. Fresh and moussey and very approachable.

Delicious, supple. fresh.
Made from old vine Grenache (90%) with equal parts Syrah and Mourvdre grown on pebbled and clayey soils, this affluent red offers aromas of black raspberry and pan warmed plums, vanilla, licorice, cocoa, baking spices and hints of Mediterranean garrigue. Generous black fruit, a supple weight and ripe tannins contribute to a deliciously drinkable red. It has freshness and approach-ability.

Fun, straightforward, tangy.
Made from Grenache with Syrah and Cinsault this charming pink is extremely fun, and blessedly, drier. Pale pink in hue it offers strawberry, rhubarb, cranberry, orange peel and fine spice aromas, which lead to a tangy and straightforward palate. Lean on fruit but high in acid it's a Southern France styled pink made for dining.
Pairs great with Gone Crackers Parmesan & Rosemary

Fun, straightforward, tangy.
Made from Grenache with Syrah and Cinsault this charming pink is fun, and blessedly dry. Pale peachy-pink in hue it offers cranberry, red apple, rhubarb and faint spice aromas, which lead to a juicy and clean palate. Red fruits, apple peel and citrus flavours; mouthwatering and great with cheese and charcuterie, fish and grilled veggies.
