-Importer notes
Mourchon's very talented winemaker, Sébastien, is a Gigondas native and knows everyone in the village. A few years ago, I mentioned to him that I wished Mourchon made a Gigondas, and he told me he'd be happy to craft one for us using a secret source from one of his vigneron friends. I thought he was joking—until a sample arrived. Fantastic stuff! And he still won't tell me where he sources it from... It's obviously someone very good.

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.
