Bijou’s flagship wine, Le Bijou de Sophie Valrose is named after a lady who worked in the Languedoc vineyards during the late 19th century and became something of a local hero. At the time, it was largely women who worked in the vineyards; pruning and harvesting the vines. Sadly these women were often mistreated, over-worked and under-paid. Sophie fought for women’s rights and drastically improved working conditions for her fellow women in the vineyard in which she worked. Bijou is a tribute to her memory, sharing her story on the back of every bottle sold. This beautiful rosé is made from grapes sourced from handpicked bush vines, alike those that Sophie would’ve harvested herself many years ago.

Buglioni produces distinctive wines and, alongside the traditional Valpolicella styles, offers more unconventional and pure expressions that reveal the authentic character of the territory and its native varieties.
In 2018, Mariano Buglioni was looking for the best name for his new Lugana. Reflecting on his reasons for growing outside Valpolicella, he realised that the Lugana area itself, south of Lake Garda, was the ‘Muse’ that had inspired him. With the harvest of 2023, the wine became ‘Gabriella’, a tribute to Mariano’s mother, his first muse and source of daily inspiration.
