In the glass

All Ugni Blanc, a grape natural growers almost never bottle on its own. Sunny and fresh, from a Tavel grower who spent seven years at L'Anglore.

Romain Le Bars spent seven years beside Éric Pfifferling at Domaine de l'Anglore before starting out in Tavel in 2018 with a single rented hectare. Le Clau is his white, made entirely from Ugni Blanc off sandy, pebbly ground with vines over 40 years old. It is pressed straight off the grapes and fermented in old casks, with only a pinch of sulphur at bottling. Sunny and generous, fruity and floral, with a freshness that keeps it lively.
