Winery notes:
ABOUT THE WINE
An unusual blend that combines Caberent Sauvignon from Le Mazel in Valvignères with Gewürztraminer from the Bannwarth family in Obermorschwihr, Alsace. The grapes were both pressed directly and later blended into barrels, where they spent three years ageing without ever being topped up. A gorgeous shade of pink in the glass, this offers a heady perfume of red berries, rose and exotic spice, whilst the palate is salty, savoury and long.

Please note this oxidative wine is bottled as 500ml.

ABOUT ANDERS FREDERIK STEEN
Anders and his family have now settled in the beautiful village of Valvignères in the Ardèche, a beautiful spot amongst a wide, open valley. The many varieties grown here thrive on a perfect mix of clay and limestone and the vineyards are full of life, having been tended organically for decades. As well as his own vineyards, Anders also picks grapes with the Ousrics in Valvignères and further afield with the Bannwarth family in Obermorschwihr, Alsace. In his previous life Anders was both a chef and sommelier, working at the best restaurants in his native Denmark. First as a sommelier at Noma, later opening Manfreds and Relae. This experience informs his winemaking in that he does not seek to follow rules and doesn’t feel the need to do the same thing every year. Instead, as he harvests he tastes the grapes and begins to imagine the kind of wine he might be able to make. This refreshingly logical, creative approach yields wines that are truly one of a kind.
