"The family de Malet Roquefort is installed at Saint Emilion since 1705. Owner of several vineyards (Bordeaux and Saint Emilion AOC) and the famous Chateau La Gaffelière, 1st Growth. They are proud of their roots and their “terroirs” diversity. The wines are well-known for their elegance. Comtesse de Malet Roquefort is mainly elaborated from the vineyards of the family. Clean, crisp, and juicy; fresh and racy; dry, smooth, and long." —importer

"Yellow gold, clear and brilliant. Freshness on the nose marked by the distinctive aromas of Viognier; white flowers, apricot, acacia and white peach. On the palate it is fruity with plenty of richness and body. A well-rounded wine with elegance, strength and balance." —winemaker

"A dry, white wine with crisp and fruity nose, appealing floral notes, and hints of ripe peach, yellow pear, red apple, almond and honey." —winemaker

"Cuvée Centenaire takes its name from the 100-year-old vines of Grenache Blanc and Gris Jean-Marc Lafage farms just a few kilometers from the Mediterranean on gravelly clay soils. One of the greatest white wine values in our portfolio, the final wine blends these ancient grapes with up to 20% younger vine Roussanne. To make a rich and balanced wine, the grapes are harvested in two passes, the first when they just reach ripeness and are still high in acidity and a second pass when the grapes are fully ripe with rich fruit flavors. The wine is then aged in a combination of tank and new French oak barrels." —winemaker

"A kaleidoscope of grapiness, produced exclusively from hand harvested grapes in predominantly clay and limestone vineyards, from a dozen of the most favored localities in and around Riquewihr. Gentil Hugel allies the suave, spicy flavor of Gewurztraminer, the body of Pinot Gris, the finesse of Riesling, the grapiness of Muscat and the refreshing character of both Pinot Blanc and Sylvaner." —winemaker
