    In a few words ...

    Fragrant and powerful. This happy blend, dominated by Grenache Blanc and aged in oak, takes its name from Alito de Montvin, the glass-blower who bought the property in 1427 and renamed it La Verrière. The high altitude and therefore the longer ripening season encouraged us to plant white grapes despite our very southerly latitude. Many people tried to discourage us, but we listened to our terroir, and today our first white cuvée is already winning awards. The high concentration of fruit and its freshness are a natural match for the oak, which is why we decided to make it a wine for laying down.

    Tasting notes

    Intense, rich, complex aromas of verbena mixed with toasted almonds and buttery brioche, slightly honeyed.

    Fresh and tangy, with great elegance and finesse, and a light mineral salinity. Hints of lime blossom. Roundness with a hint of vanilla.
