Clairette de Die “Tradition”
Domaine Achard-VincentAt seven degrees alcohol, the Tradition is made with Muscat and Clairette grapes. It is vinified following the ancient local tradition. It is a festive wine. You coulda watched the Super Bowl with it, some popcorn (tossed with olive oil, salt, and dried thyme), and your pals.

For the wines that I buy I insist that the winemaker leave them whole, intact. I go into the cellars now and select specific barrels or cuvées, and I request that they be bottled without stripping them with filters or other devices. This means that many of our wines will arrive with a smudge of sediment and will throw a more important deposit as time goes by, It also means the wine will taste better.
