PRACTICING ORGANIC
We’ve long considered the tenacious Daniel Alibrand to be one of the most talented vignerons we work with. He’s a no-frills, no-nonsense guy with a winemaking style to match. In Sauternes, it’s unusual to craft razor-sharp, bone-dry whites from Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon that are electrifying, stimulating, and complex. But Daniel delivers every vintage. The moniker for this wine reveals his pursuit: to make a focused and precise blanc that tastes “defined.” The resulting cuvée is bright, salty, and brimming with peachy, citrusy fruit. It’s just the antidote to moody days and gray February skies. —Jane Augustine, Kermit Lynch Wine Merchant
