Grololo Rouge

Pithon-Paillé

One of the world's most famous glou glou drops, this Grolleau pairs with almost everything and goes down all too easily. Chill it down, let it quench your thirst and rest your mind. Grolleau is a gorgeously low alcohol grape taut with the food friendliest of acid and a rustic charm. Carbonic maceration highlights the red fruited character of this indigenous Loire variety while keeping the tannins low. A wine made simply from tenderly pampered, biodynamically farmed vines that produce faithful and nourishing grapes year after year. This is the essence of what the Italians call 'vino al vino': wine from wine.
