This Saturday is an opportunity to learn about the power of terroir, the creativity of a winemaker and the value of wine that comes from an overlooked appellation.
Olivier Giroux, winemaker and owner of Clos des Rocs, grows grapes on 13 acres on land in the tiny appellation called Pouilly-Loché in the Maconnais region, next to more-famous neighbor Pouilly-Fuissé.
From that, he creates several white Burgundies that express the depth and versatility of the chardonnay grape grown in iron-rich clay and limestone, and the ability of a winemaker to fine tune his juice into variations on a theme.
It wine that could easily pass for a bottle at twice the price.
Kurt Schlatter, from local importer Bianco-Rosso, will be presenting six of Giroux’s creations.
Kurt will be at the Ravenna shop from 11:00 – 2:00 and at the Queen Anne shop from 2:30 – 5:30
