2022 Domaine Philemon - Gaillac Blanc Perle Nature Loin de l'Oeil

Phil "discovered" this wine in a chance meeting at the Air France lounge in Bordeaux! This blend of 70% Sauvignon blanc, 20% Sémillon, 10% Muscadelle is a textbook white Bordeaux that is wonderfully crisp and jut plain fun to drink. Fun fact: Hubert De Boüard (owner of Chateau Angelus in St. Emilion) consults on this wine!

Red colour with violet hues, refers to the sweetness of a dark fruit with refined elegance. Intense and rich on the nose, it is both concentrated and harmonious: flowers and fruits to give way to hay, tobacco, spices. Bright summer berries on the palate with graphite veins lead to the discovery of a series of sensations. Predominately Nebbiolo, Barbera and Dolcetto. Smaller quantities of
Freisa, Albarossa, Pinot noir. - Winery notes

Roger Labbe’s Abymes is 100% Jacquère, a variety that grows especially well in the Savoie region of France. While the appellation tolerates 10% of other grape varieties, Labbe chooses to feature the purity of this variety in this bottling.
A clean, dry white wine; tangy, chalky minerals and floral fruit flavors, it is a natural match for shellfish.

With 30 years of existence, Atlantis is the first table wine produced and bottled in Madeira and represents the freshness of the Atlantic and the beauty of the Island where this nectar is produced. The Atlantis rosé is produced with the grape variety Tinta Negra. A dry & crisp rosé with undertones of strawberry fruit. Excellent as an aperitif or paired with grilled fish, shellfish, pasta and salads.
