Henri Bourgeois' 'Le Vert-Galant' Coteaux de Vendomois traces its heritage to the reign of Henri IV, taking inspiration from the wines local to his chateau in Vendome. The grape variety, Pineau d'Aunis, is native to the historic Loire Valley of western France but is a rare find outside of that region. The fermentation and maceration process develops a very dry rose with hints of strawberry and citrus. This perfect aperatif will be sure to give you chills even on a warm summer afternoon.
