Felicita 2000: 50/50 Red Blend (Grenache and Tempranillo) Grenache is a Rhone varietal, but it is also widely planted in Spain where it is called Garnacha. Tempranillo is a Spanish varietal grown in the famed Rioja region of Spain. In the Rioja, Garnacha is used to round out and soften the Tempranillo wine. As such, Felicita was created in the classic Rioja style and aged in small American oak barrels for 12 months.

The Grenache and Tempranillo grapes were grown and harvested from the Guadalupe Valley, Baja California. 750ml bottle Wine Tasters Rating: 89 .

The Romanin wines

The first Château Romanin vintage was born in 1990.
The wines of Château Romanin are the image of our soil and reflect the influence of our way of cultivating the vines. They are the embodiment of both their terrestrial character with their solid and warm structure, and their aromatic mineral characteristics, but also of a light and airy character, well represented in their amplitude, delicacy and crispness. Fruit of the heavens and the earth, a fragile balance, our wines are harmonious, elegant and lively. Their personality is one of contrast. They are both shy and docile, lively and tender, forthright and complex. They are messengers of a place and a history.


Le Cœur de Château Romanin,
AOC Les Baux-de-Provence, red
Each year, an emblematic plot of the domain gives birth to grapes of exceptional quality which in turn, give birth to juice of an exceptional quality? A great wine was born out of this soil. Cœur has taken the best from the soil and the know-how of Romanin. It offers us our greatest collection every year: Primus in 1998 (900 bottles), Secundus in 1999 (4,200 bottles), Tertius in 2000 (10,000 bottles), Quartus in 2001 (8,200 bottles)?

Le Château Romanin,
AOC Les Baux-de-Provence, red et rosé
AOC Coteaux d’Aix-en-Provence, white
Château Romanin is made from the plots situated at the foothills of the Alpilles, to the south of the domain and expresses concentration and finesse. A show-stopper, according to the Hachette 2000 guide, winner of the Baux winegrower competition in 2002, we consider the 1999 vintage to be a real ? bridge ?. Château Romanin, the emblem of our vineyard, is a veritable jewel among Baux-de-Provence wines.

La Chapelle de Romanin,
AOC Les Baux-de-Provence, red et rosé
AOC Coteaux d’Aix-en-Provence, white
This wine is made from the young vines in the vineyard and is never aged in oak barrels. Sensuous, spirited, warm and elegant, its ? garrigue ? aroma reminds us of the Alpilles that surround and nourish it. Ever since its beginnings in 1995, la Chapelle de Romanin has been a revelation, establishing itself a little more year after year.

Jean Le Troubadour,
Vin de Pays des Bouches-du-R hône, red et rosé
Our vin de pays comes from plots on the domain that are not part of AOC Baux-de-Provence (approximately 3 hectares). A very natural, tasty wine, for everyday enjoyment?

Sauternes

For a touch of exoticism, try Clos Dady with sweet and sour Asian cuisine , in particular chicken curry, or sweet and sour pineapple. It is also worth discovering with asparagus …

Clos Dady can also be enjoyed as a very stylish aperitif . Just like champagne, it is a world in itself, the perfect accompaniment for those special moments shared with family and close friends.

As a finishing touch, a glass of Clos Dady will be the ideal companion for a moment of meditation , lost in your thoughts, perhaps with an excellent cigar.

Le vin de Château de Touvent
The Château de Touvent wine results from the care we take with the vine yard, the characteristics of its "terroir", the weather conditions in between two harvests, and much more things indeed...
It would be preposterous to believe that everything is under control!
Our vine varietals split 60% Cabernet Sauvignon and 40% Merlot Noir, the most typical varietals to be found in Bordeaux fine wines.

Château de Touvent 2002 has a straight purple colour, a faint nose with a herbal touch, while the mouth is broad and generous. Not so long yet, it is a well balanced wine, with some acidity in the finale that augurs of its ability for aging. Tasted now when it is still a young wine, it takes from the Cabernet Sauvignon grape variety a hint of sweet pepper where the merlot gives out some red fruit taste. Complex and not so tannic, it has a feminine nature in it. We are eager to see it aging although it should be at its best in 2008.

Château de Touvent 2003 differs from the previous vintage. A very promising wine with a marked nose, without default, its mouth has a lot more concentration and "thickness". Seducing by its straightforward attack, its tannins smelt into caramel, milk aromas. As such a wine from the "bordelais". Not so acid, as a result of 2003 summer overheat in France, one could say it has a male temper. Over time aromatic complexity shall appear

Chateau De Rolland

Chateau de Rolland
Bordeaux
Sauternes

he vineyard of Château de Rolland is divided in three rural districts of the Gironde county: Barsac, Preignac and Pujols-sur-Ciron, which are located approximately 6 kilometres (4 US miles) from one another. Sauternes wine is produced in Barsac and Preignac; the dry white wine Bordeaux Blanc Sec in Barsac; the dry white wine Graves Blanc Sec and the red wine Graves Rouge are produced in Pujols-sur-Ciron.

Due to its proximity to the Garonne River, the terroir of Barsac and Pujols-sur-Ciron has very fertile and sandy soils enriched by alluvia from the river.
Specific information about the terroir is shown in the table below.

Sauternes wine is a sweet white wine that is a result from the "Noble Rot" attack on grapes. Sauternes wine is a perfect complement to your first course with foie gras, asparagus, fish with sauce (turbot-plaice-salmon); also to meals with roasted chicken; to cheese and especially Roquefort and goat cheese from the Pyrenees; to desserts like apple and figs tart, dried fruits, fruit and melon sorbet; as an apéritif with your guests.
