Bistrot des Arts Chardonnay

IGP Pays d'Oc ORIGIN - TERROIR This collection is a tribute to the iconic Parisian bistros, symbol of the capital and convivial spots where Parisians used to meet for a drink, often a 'house wine' carefully selected at the vineyard itself. During the Belle Epoque they were also frequented by artists, it was in many of these bistros that inspiration was found for some of the most famous pieces of art that made France famous across the world. This is the spirit of the Bistrot Des Arts range. Through its various varietal wines, it embodies conviviality and the French 'art de vivre'. Bistrot des Arts are Vins du Pays d'Oc from specially selected terroirs. They express the typical character of the wines from the South of France: generosity, freshness and expression of the fnüt.
