‘Malolactix’

Grolleau, Gamay, Cabernet Franc & Melon de Bourgogne, Loire, France 

A spritely gem with an undeniable glug-glug factor we just don’t want to get over. Winemaker Quentin Bourse took over his friend's property in the Touraine subzone of Azay-le-Rideau, after working with a number of natural winemakers around France. The blend of biodynamic, classic Loire grapes includes – punchy Grolleau (30%), vivid Gamay (30%), savoury Cabernet franc (20%), salty-citric Melon de Bourgogne (aka the grape of Muscadet 20%). Uncomplicated, unpretentious, with purity & tension biting the inside of your cheeks with every gulp. High toned cherry lip smackers, strawberry kiwi juicebox, mossy boulders & a yeasty plum brioche crunch. Drink with Japanese curry & the poetry of Pablo Neruda.
