ABOUT THIS WINE:
Pont du Nord Contre Sud
Grenache Blanc
Pont du Nord Contre Sud shows how tradition and innovation can unite in beautiful (and delicious) harmony. Our Grenache Blanc combines fruit-forward, New World-style flavors with crisp Old Word-style textures. Delightful floral aromas introduce rich green fruit and zesty citrus notes. This wine hails from the south of France, where our winemaking partners in the Pays d’Oc incorporate traditional and modern winemaking techniques to capitalize on the strengths of both. Harvest took place during the cool nighttime hours; a practice used to preserve the grape’s natural acidity and delicate aromas. The wine underwent fermentation in traditional concrete tanks, allowing Grenache Blanc’s fruity varietal character to shine. This wine is a delectable conversation starter and pairs with an array of dinner party aperitifs. Scroll through the image carousel above to learn more about this wine. ...

WINE REGION:
Pays d'Oc IGP
If you've vacationed in the south of France, you've probably visited the Pays d'Oc region. Embracing the Mediterranean from Spain to Provence, this region is famed as much for its Grenache, Pinot Noir and Chardonnay as its endless sunshine. Pays d'Oc covers non-AOC wines made across this large, sun-kissed region, known as France's "New World." Far from the regulations of the AOC system, pioneering winemakers headed here to experiment, crafting many now-famous wines that often state their grape variety on the label—not something that was common in France before then. IGP (Indication Géographique Protégée) within France’s wine classification system focuses on controlling regional and geographical origin. The category is less restrictive than the AOC classification and gives winemakers more freedom with style and taste profile when creating wines.
