Soulful and unique. Would love to see this with some bottle age!

2013 vintage. Perfect with bouillabaisse in its homeland. Nice bitter middle.

Quite funky! Gruner/Albariño characteristics.

An all time fav. Vines grow up to the cliff overlooking the ocean. Can taste the shist and salt. Delicate ethereal wine. Maybe a muscadet?

I don't know what the blend is, don't really care. Super reductive at open, blew off a bit, feels like the middle of this wine is missing.

Delicious. Lush body, mineral, slightly brine-y palate. Some floral notes as well, that I'm not deft enough to pin down.

Orange flower, salinity on the subdued nose. Fresh as milk, stone fruit, herbs, blossoms and a bitter note. Colour is gorgeous, light, glistening gold. Perfect with soupe au pistou.
