£50.00

Producer:François Dhumes
Region: Auvergne, France
Grapes: Chardonnay, Eau de Vie, Gentian
Style: White / Spirits
Size: 75cl bottle
Alc.: 17%
Notes: A delightful ratafia by the Dhumes, made in the style of a mistelle. Two-thirds Chardonnay juice (from their Nuit Blanche plot) from the 2024 harvest, fortified with a third of eau de vie made in 2022 that was infused with wild gentiane. Invigorating tonic bitterness, with notes of pink peppercorns, young root ginger, and a long honeyed finish. Delicious on its own (or with an ice cube), and mixed into cocktails!
