Semi-dry, Sweet and Spirited
With their own sugar content, sweet wines and vins liquoreux are becoming increasingly popular. Although production has now spread to wines from all over the world, France is still the largest producer with multiple grape varieties located in several regions of France.So, if the reference in this field is Jurançon, you can also find equally recognised AOCs such as Loupiac, Sainte-Croix-du-Mont and Sauternes. These same wines are also available in the vineyards of Bergerac, the Loire Valley, but also in Alsace, Anjou and Touraine. You can, for example, taste a Gewurztraminer AOC or a Pinot Gris. Foreign sweet wines are also available on the website www.lespasssionnesduvin.com, offering wines that are pleasant on the palate and a little different from the regional wines, while offering beautiful colours and flavours. We have taken care to offer you a selection of quality wines to suit every budget, whether you choose French wines from small producers whose quality we guarantee, or choose perfectly rated grands crus. In addition to sweet wines, we also offer more than 3,000 references among white, red or rosé wines , champagnes , sparkling wines and spirits, applying the same selection criteria.
Le vignoble
Albert Boxler
"Vingt millésimes après son arrivée, Jean Boxler a lentement fait évoluer les réglages pour aujourd'hui vinifier à égalité avec l'élite de l'Alsace. Les vignes sont splendidement situées, aussi bien sur le Sommerberg ou sur le Brand, deux terroirs en riesling. La viticulture est exigeante et soignée, et les élevages adaptés aux vins et aux millésimes. Ici, aucune fausse note, quel que soit le cépage." 5*/5 Bettane+Desseauve

La Soumade
Labet
"Julien Labet, with the help of his brother and sister, has taken over his father Alain's vineyards, which are now grouped together under a single entity: Domaine Labet. (...) Numerous micro-parcels (between 15 and 80 ares, often from old vines) are vinified by Julien, both in white (all ouillés) and in red, the latter being perhaps the most exceptional to be born today in the region. Sulphur levels are very low but the balance is impossible to fault in the wines. The estate is now one of the spearheads of the Jura revival." RVF Guide 2018

Marcel Deiss

Mas Jullien
Plus qu’aucun autre vigneron du Languedoc, Olivier Jullien recueille l’admiration et le respect de ses pairs ; il est l’un des principaux artisans de la renaissance d’une viticulture rigoureuse dans la région, recherchant la combinaison nuancée de sols et de cépages autochtones variés, en rouge et en blanc, sur les terrasses du Larzac. La sincérité de ce visionnaire fuyant la compétition se projette sur ses vins, profonds, digestes et généreux, sudistes par l’intensité et la variété de leurs saveurs, non par la simple maturité du raisin et son illusoire richesse en alcool. Des rouges frais et complets, à l’élevage millimétré, mais aussi un magnifique blanc hors mode, capables de briller sur plus de quinze ans de vieillissement. Les vins de ce domaine servent aujourd’hui de référence.
