The BODEGAS RIOJANAS COLLECTION

Bodegas Riojanas was founded in 1890 and was constructed by French technicians — the result of which was an almost exact copy of a French château. Situated at the meeting point of two valleys carved by rivers Ebro and Najerilla, the town of Cenicero is nowadays renowned as the birthplace of fine Rioja. Riojanas wines all display fine aged character and are vigorous, rich, spicy and developed with powerful structure and good length.

The CHABLIS of PASCAL BOUCHARD

Pascal Bouchard is a thoroughly innovative Domaine whose origins date hack to the 19th century where the Tremblay family overcame phylloxera and two world wars! It was in 1949, when André Tremblay inherited 7 acres of vines, that the Domaine pioneered the first riding tractors in the area. André died in 1980 leaving 25 hectares of vines in the best Crus of Chablis to his two danghters. One of the daughters, Joelle, married Pascal Bouchard, also a vineyard proprietor and today we can enjoy wines from one of the best producers of Chablis wine.
