Description
The Vindiou estate presents its ‘Brèves de Comptoir’: a wine that truly lives up to its name, evoking a sense of conviviality and light-heartedness. A tangy fruitiness, a hint of pepper, minimal tannins: that’s all you need! … Or perhaps a piece of beef shank on the BBQ. Unless you’d prefer a chicken liver pâté or a slightly matured Saint-Marcelin.
