New Wave
When Gregory Hecht & François Bannier founded their wine trading company in the south of France in the early 2000s, the local winemakers were a little surprised that these two young oenologists, who were not from the region, showed up there. They want to bring a breath of fresh air to the region, nourished by the experience they have gained in other wine-growing regions. Vintage after vintage, critics applaud the blends of this "new wave of wine". The two partners were soon dubbed the vineyard's "Wine Beach Boys" for both their surfer looks and their laid-back and no-nonsense approach to old-school midi viticulture.
A few years later, the two friends still surf when the opportunity arises, and also with their children during the summer. As a nod to this nickname of the old surfers, Hecht & Bannier have come up with this cuvée "Nouvelle Vague".
It is vinified from their finest organic grape selections, sourced from their historic viticultural playgrounds. The assemblage is predominantly matured in concrete tanks and, after light filtration, bottled without fining.
