"Robe or pâle. Nez typé, engageant aux accents de fruits blancs, de fleurs des champs. La bouche séduit par son fruit dynamique, sa fraîcheur, son agréable vivacité. Un bordeaux blanc comme on les aime, très rafraîchissant, très convivial. Apéritif réussi."
"Golden straw yellow colour. Typical of the appellation with white fruit aromas and floral notes. On the palate, the wine seduces by its fruity aromas, its freshness and it's pleasant intensity. A seductive Bordeaux, very refreshing and easy to drink. Perfect as an aperitif"

B&G Passeport Muscadet Sèvre-et-Maine

Vorsicht! 10 Lebensmittel, die du nicht mit (jedem) Wein kombinieren solltest - InStyle.de April 2018 (View)
"Der richtige Wein zum Dinner ist eine kleine Wissenschaft für sich. Wenn du den falschen Wein wählst, kann er in Kombination mit deinem Abendessen – je nachdem, aus was es besteht – metallisch oder sauer schmecken.
Damit dir das nicht mehr passiert, gibt's hier die ultimative Liste an Lebensmitteln, welche du NICHT mit (jedem) Wein kombinieren solltest. […]
Rosenkohl
Rosenkohl ist erdig und leicht schwefelhaltig. Beides Eigenschaften, die nicht gut mit Wein funktionieren. Sie heben den Geschmack des Weins auf, sodass er sehr fad schmeckt. Das Gleiche passiert auch bei Brokkoli.
Besser: Grüner Veltliner aus Österreich. Die enthaltenen Kräuter harmonieren hervorragend mit leicht bitterem Gemüse. Auch französischer Muscadet ist eine gute Alternative"

Driven By Rosé, French Wine Shipments To The U.S. Rise By Double-Digits- APRIL 2018

French still wine exports to the United States advanced by an impressive 14% last year to 12.5 million cases, according to Business France, a French government agency. Export value registered an even more notable 18.4% gain to €1.13 billion ($1.39b) in 2017. Up until the beginning of this decade, total U.S. imports of all French wines had been in a long-term decline, but since then they've enjoyed a renaissance.
Shipments to the U.S. were once again led by the Bordeaux region, up 5.7% to 2.1 million cases last year, but the fastest-growing regions were Provence (+46%) and the Languedoc (+26%), with Provence rosé continuing to be among the hottest segments of the drinks market.
According to Impact Databank, five prominent French labels were among the fastest-growing imported wines in the U.S. last year: Vineyard Brands' La Vieille Ferme (+25% to 447,000 cases), Gerard Bertrand (+46% to 350,000 cases), Shaw-Ross's Chateau d'Esclans (+58% to 315,000 cases), Terlato's M. Chapoutier (+13% to 225,000 cases), and Barton & Guestier (+33% to 200,000 cases). All of the above earned Impact "Hot Brand" honors for their 2017 performances.
