Die Wines

Clairette de Die gained Appellation d'Origine Contrôlée status in 1942 producing delicately effervescent wines by the méthode ancestrale but was an important enclave for viticulture for generations prior to that. The Achard-Vincent family have been practicing organic viticulture since 1968 (the year before we founded Yapp Brothers), and are highly regarded as producing characterful and classic biodynamic wines with a strong sense of tradition and terroir. Today, they oversee 11 hectares of vines at Saint-Croix in the Die river valley between Vercours and Provence. Their Clairette de Die 'Tradition' is made from a blend of 85% Muscat à Petits Grains and 15% Clairette that has a single ferment in bottle. The finished wine is low in alcohol (around 7.5% ABV) with a soft, creamy mousse, uplifting orchard fruit scents and flavours and a gently-honeyed and lightly-sweet finish. It makes for a refreshing pick-me-up and is an ideal partner for canapés or (traditionally) walnuts.

They also produce a sparkling Crémant de Die 'P'tit Jules' made by the more contemporary and widespread méthode traditionelle of a secondary fermentation in bottle. It is made from a blend of 60% Clairette Blanche, 35% Aligoté and 5% Muscat à Petits Grains and is dry and sparkling with ripe apple aromas and a supple stone-fruit palate with a long, elegant finish.
