Lapostolle Le Rosé is inspired on a provençal style, focused on bringing the most elegant and subtle expression of a rosé blend from Apalta vineyards.
Lapostolle Le Rosé comes from our San José Estate located in the Apalta Valley, near the town of Santa Cruz, 170 Kilometers South West from Santiago. The 2022 season was undoubtedly a cooler season, but at the same time it had good conditions to wait for the maturity of the fruit in most of the varieties.
Cantina Le Monde is located in Friuli, within the famous Grave del Friuli area that extends from the foothills of the Alps to the Adriatic Sea. The origins of the estate that once owned the farmland can be traced back to the early 1700’s. The name ‘Le Monde’ is taken from the Germanic-Latin word “Mundio”, an ancient Germanic law that ‘protected’ the farmlands of the region. Cantina Le Monde ‘protects’ and safeguards its vineyards, farming in a healthy way, that respects nature and the sustainable future of ancient soils.
“We don’t do what we do for the plaudits of our profession. If critics endorse our product, that’s great news, but truly, we do what we do at Le Monde for all wine drinkers – for everyone – for the people” – Alex Maccan, owner of Cantina Le Monde.

The Pinot Grigio of Le Monde is produced on the clay and limestone soils of Friuli, which give a pleasant freshness and minerality to the wines of this area.

Sixth generation of winegrowers, Nicolas Gaudry and his wife Sandy have been exploiting since 2003, 23 hectares of very fragmented plots between the villages of Boisgibault and Les Loges in the Nièvre. This distribution in the Pouilly vineyard offers possibilities for complex blends of all types of terroirs for a typical Pouilly-Fumé wine.
This elegant Pouilly-Fumé shows volume and consistency. Crispy and fresh wine with nice balance between fruity and minerality.
It all began in the mid-1970s when André Dubosc – a third-generation wine grower – set out to build up the reputation of the wines from their region of South-West France. He and other passionate young winegrowers fashioned local dry white wines (now a PGI: Côtes de Gascogne), revived the Saint Mont appellation and gave a new breath of life to the Pacherenc du Vic-Bilh, made from late-harvested grapes. In 1979, these women and men, who put their heart, soul and know-how into producing the best the terroir could offer, decided to strengthen their foothold by uniting their wine cellars and estates. And so they set up the Plaimont union of cooperatives (“Pl” for Plaisance, “Ai” for Aignan and “Mont” for Saint Mont).
Long marked by powerful and structured wines, Madiran offers a new interpretation with Apéro’Nautes 2023. This vintage breaks the codes by highlighting a fresh and fruity Tannat, obtained thanks to a short maceration and aging in vats which preserves all the delicacy of the grape variety. The result: a red with a supple texture, intense aromas of cherry and raspberry, perfect for an aperitif with friends.

It was in the vineyard of Saint Mont, that the devil disguised as a winemaker, succumbed to temptation and stole bunches of Tannat, Pinenc and Cabernet Sauvignon. This cuvee is produced from a blend of the appellation’s three terroirs: clay-limestone, variegated clay and fawn-coloured sand. The parcels have been selected on the basis of their geographically cool situations (north or west-facing) which encourage the development of the aromatic expression of the red grapes with which rosé is made. Will you succumb to temptation?
Ancient legends recount tales of nymphs, giants and winged serpents in the encompassing Apennine mountains. During the 5th century BC, the most feared mythical dragon devastated Ate and Tixa, in the southern part of Abruzzo. St. Leucio, famed slayer was summoned to kill the dragon. Today St. Leucio Cathedral stands on the monster’s den and contains the dragon’s 2 meter rib as proof of the diocesan’s bravery.
Hand-harvested grapes from the Abruzzo region make up this fruit-forward red wine. Classic Italian varietal Sangiovese is combined with French Merlot and aged for three months in large vessels made from oak, to soften and round out the tannins. Sangiovese gives crunchy red fruits, brisk acidity and fine tannins for structure, while Merlot adds soft, fleshy red stone fruits, producing a plush, satisfying red.
