Discover wine’s possibilities

‘One ought, every day at least, to hear a little song, read a good poem, see a fine picture, and if it were possible, to speak a few reasonable words.’
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

We hope your year has started well and that these bottles lift the winter spirits.

Vignoble du Rêveur

Vignoble du Rêveur was created by the children of great natural winemakers – Mathieu Deiss, Marcel Deiss’s son from Alsace and Emmanuelle Milan, Henry Milan’s daughter from Provence.

Delicious with mushrooms or foie gras on toast, or even with a flavourful chicken curry.

Dry and citrus fruit, rich and textured, then saline.
