Figuiere Magali Signature Cotes de Provence Rose 2022
' Figuière is a 210-acre organic wine estate located in La Londe les Maures, between Marseille and Nice and with vineyards that lie only a few hundred metres from the Mediterranean Sea. Alain Combard purchased the property in 1992 after discovering its cool coastal climate and unique schist soils. The schist in La Londe seduced my father, says Alain's daughter Magali, schist and the sea make our style. There's a five-degree difference in temperature from our vineyards to those of the interior, says Magali, the freshness and minerality found in our wines is very singular to the La Londe region. The wines combine freshness and summer fruit notes with a complexity and salinity that makes them both satisfying and food friendly as well as approachable and thoroughly delicious. For over half a century, the Combard family has been handing down the winemaking tradition to its sons and daughters. Magali, Delphine and François took the helm of the winery from their father Alain Combard and are proudly carrying on his pioneering spirit. Blending heritage and innovation, Figuière is a traditional winery using time-honored methods that aspires to boldly and creatively cultivate a living legacy through novel winemaking techniques.The vineyard has the ideal growing conditions for exceptional wines: one of the sunniest places in France, perfect for ripening a dozen varieties typical of Provence like Mourvèdre, Syrah, Grenache and Cinsault red grapes and Vermentino white grapes;- the sea only a few yards down from the vineyard as the crow flies, which regulates the heat so plants start growing earlier in the spring, the night-time summer dew and harvests before the rain begins in the fall. Magali is an easy drinking named after the Estate's commercial director, the second Combard daugther in the family. Since the acquisition of Chateau Barbeiranne in 2019, it is a blend of two very beautiful terroirs: La Londe's schist soils with maritime influence, and Pignans' clay limesto
Gratien & Meyer Cuvee Flamme Rose Brut NV
Gratien & Meyer is one of the leading producers of Cremant wines (traditional method sparkling) in the Loire region of France. The traditional winery was established by Alfred Gratien back in 1864, in the same year that he also founded the globally-recognised Champagne house, Champagne Alfred Gratien. Gratien & Meyer proudly upholds many of the traditions established over a century and a half ago to produce delicious Loire sparkling wines. It still uses its original cellars to bottle-age their wines that were carved out of the ancient tuffeau limestone hillside overlooking the River Loire. However, while Gratien & Meyer have preserved many of its well-established traditions, it has also been proactive in modernising its winery to ensure that it produces wines of increasingly good quality.
