If the shoe fits, wear it - if it doesn't, make wine instead? Donatien Bahuaud's family were clog makers, coopers and grape growers before he founded his winery in 1929. This off-dry Vouvray will be a great way to kick off (see what we did there?) your next summer barbecue when served, nicely chilled, with grilled pork burgers in a honey-ginger marinade. |
