Pays d'Oc IGP
Loading...
Finding a wine made purely from Grenache Gris is rare. It's even rarer to discover one that's so good, it's oak-fermented. From southern France and a winemaker, ready to pounce on the best grapes, it's a luscious, creamy spice and peachy white.
We're sorry, this wine is sold out.
But don't worry, you'll find plenty more handpicked wines here.

The Story Behind the Bottle
Winemaker Mark Hoddy works in a winery close to Béziers, in southern France. He also lives nearby, in Pézenas, so he's always ready to leap on a special parcel of grapes – in the vineyard or when it comes into the cellar. For many years, he's been watching out for some top-quality Grenache Gris to match what he'd found back in 2012. Finally, a decade later, he succeeded. Such was the richness and deep fruit flavour of the grapes that he made the bold decision to ferment a parcel in barrel. That lends a delicious, well-integrated layer of oak spice to the ripe peach, pear and mandarin fruit, with hints of blossom. A beautifully balanced white, with creamy roundness, that makes a tasty partner to sauced chicken or salmon en croûte.
