MARTIN BENZ ÜBER:
Secret de Famille - Rosé & Ginger
Benz: It was the most beautiful of coincidences that reminded Isabelle and Catherine of the importance of their work and their family's legacy: one stormy evening, when the lights went out, they searched for candles in the old family furniture. This search opened a window into the past, deep in a secret compartment of an old desk: found all the secret documents of Jean Orliac, their ancestor, the king's official supplier. Not only a letter with the king's handwriting, they also found the recipes for the successful wines of that time, which had been forgotten. At a time when technology was not yet capable of outsmarting the senses, the spices of these wines intoxicated the lavish balls at Versailles. This is how the Secret de Famille wines were created again, according to the original recipes for Louis XVI. and Marie Antoinette. The beautiful pink hue that comes from the intensely bright rose petal creates a paradoxical aroma - delicate and intense - with rose and ginger aromas that bring a lot of finesse and freshness. In the background, a subtle note of pepper enriches the complexity of this wine and fills our olfactory perception. On the palate, the rich flavors are united in a perfect balance between liqueur and freshness.
