Domaine Marcel Deiss Alsace Grand Cru Altenberg de Bergheim - White 2016
Imagine yourself for a moment on a sunny terrace, surrounded by Alsatian vines, with a grand cru from Domaine Marcel Deiss in your glass. This white wine from Alsace is a concentrate of complexity and refinement, combining aromas of ripe fruit and white flowers with a beautiful minerality. Perfect to accompany grilled fish or seafood.
"A great semi-dry white wine for aging with 26g of residual sugars, balanced by minerality and impressive acidity. A composition of great purity."
Thibault Liger-Belair Moulin-à-Vent Les Vieilles Vignes 2016
Are you more of a red wine person? The Moulin-à-Vent Les Vieilles Vignes 2016 from Thibault Liger-Belair is made for you. Made from century-old vines, this wine offers an aromatic intensity that evokes juicy red fruits, sweet spices, and a light floral touch. With its fine tannins and freshness on the palate, it is the ideal partner for grilled meats and seasonal vegetables.
"Exciting and passionate, Thibault is a winemaker to discover if you have not already done so. He produces distinctive wines in Burgundy but also in Beaujolais where he bought vines. Whatever the terroir, Thibault applies impeccable work to the vineyard and as little interventionist as possible in the cellar, so as to let its soils and its grapes speak."
Alto de Cantenac Brown - White 2020
If elegance were to be summed up in a wine, the Alto de Cantenac Brown 2020 would be a perfect illustration. This white wine from Bordeaux, the fruit of a renowned Médoc estate, enchants with its aromas of peach, pear and white flowers, all enhanced by a subtle touch of vanilla. Perfect to accompany a seafood platter or a mild cheese, it is sure to be a sensation!
"Without hesitation one of the standard bearers of Médoc whites. Alto places the exotic aromas of Sauvignon in the spotlight, highlighted by a light undergrowth aging perfectly mastered thanks to the expertise of the Cantenac Brown technical teams. The touch of Sémillon n This doesn't displease me! The undergrowth aging is very well managed: it brings richness and brioche notes to this 2020 vintage."
Champagne Ruinart
What is summer without champagne? Champagne Ruinart, with its legendary finesse, is a must. Whether you choose Blanc de Blancs for its delicate aromas of white flowers and citrus, or Ruinart, you are sure to celebrate summer in style. Ideal for a chic aperitif or to toast on a special occasion.
"The sure value of a house that needs no introduction. Its texture coats the mid-palate, and its aromas always and perfectly combine the pastry and fresh fruit notes of a pretty Champagne. A harmonious, recognizable classic among many others."
Domaine Long-Depaquit (Albert Bichot) Chablis Moutonne Monopole - White 2016
Lovers of Chablis will not be able to resist this grand cru from Domaine Long-Depaquit. The Moutonne Monopole 2016 is an explosion of flavors, with notes of stone fruit, honey and a marked minerality. This rich and structured wine is ideal for refined meals, such as a truffle risotto or scallops for example.
"La Moutonne is a plot nestled in the heart of the great wines. Benefiting from a geographical configuration and a privileged position, it naturally captures a maximum of solar rays. Distributed mainly in Vaudésir (95%) and with a small portion in Preuses (5%), in 2016 it produced a wine marked by floral aromas."
