Domaine de Poulvarel Costieres de Nimes Blanc 2017
All-time, most-requested, blowing-away-your-every-expectation white wine for $11 we have ever done? Quite probably --- and the new vintage just landed, direct from the Domaine!! No sleep ‘til Brooklyn!! All we can say is move lightning quick --- this is a HUGE client fave!! Brilliant, racy, snappy, piquant stuff! YES!!
This small Domaine located near the famous Roman aqueduct called the Pont Du Gard, built in the 1st century AD in Southern France (SW of Chateauneuf-du-Pape), (which annually does an amazing laser show, by the way) is one of our proudest discoveries over the years. They seem to make wine with some sort of magic Roman elixir that charges your taste buds with energy and life. And for the price we can offer it to you? C’mon!!! Insane!
Crisp, fresh apple, for sure, lemon and lemon curd, a bit of white peach, nectarine maybe…candied lemon peel, too, oh just pour another glass and enjoy the stuff! It’s crazy refreshing, ridiculously easy to drink, and priced to load up your refrigerator with!! The chance that you are eating something tonight (Chicken? Goat cheese? Caesar? All of those?) that this wine will only improve is impossibly high. So get it at our price while it is here! While it lasts...
The Domaine de Poulvarel in Sernhac, near the Pont du Gard is a family vineyard cultivated with passion for several generations.

About The Producer
It is impossible to dissociate the Poulvarel Estate from Elisabeth and Pascal Glas.
And for good reason, in 2004, while Pascal worked in wine estates for
25 years, they decided to create their own winery on family lands. What could seem like a crazy bet at that moment, is now a well defended bet. The vintages of the estate are among the "award-winning" wines of the region and are "noticed" by the specialized press. Pascal passed on his passion for wine to Elisabeth and together they had the audacity to launch and the will to continue. They have united their strength, their differences, their know-how and now offer wines worthy of the best tables. On
a filtering soil of pebbles Villafranchian Rhôdanien type mindélien,
Syrah, Grenache, Carignan and Mourvèdre give wines with strong
expression of terroir and a unique character. In the place of POULVARELS on shallower and gravelly soils , sauvignons, cabernet and merlot offer typical wines, fruity and surprisingly sweet. Building with modern geometry, designed with Pont du Gard stones and a modern and insulating cladding. The combination of materials used has been studied to obtain an optimal temperature of breeding and conservation.
