Piquentum Refosk
Piquentum Refosk
While Refošk is in the Refosco family, it differs in that it ripens later and often has more pronounced ripe fruit. Historically, Refošk was given to woman after childbirth to combat anemia due to the rich iron content. Primary and malolactic fermentation are completed with native yeasts. A great pairing with charcuterie, oily cured fish, fish stews, and blood sausage. Locals make “Istarska supa,” a slightly warmed broth of wine, toasted country bread, olive oil, sugar, and a healthy dose of black pepper.

Le Debit d’Iveresse ‘Amb Amics’
Le Debit d’Iveresse ‘Amb Amics’Luc Devot was a cook for 7 years, a fisherman for 3 years, musician, animator, educator. He had many lives before becoming a winemaker. He worked his first harvest with Jean-Louis Tribouley, who introduced Luc to natural wines. In the years that followed, many winemakers settled with similar cultivation and vinification methods. Driven by this momentum, and after training with Loïc Roure from Domaine du possible, he became a volunteer at the “La remise” wine fair. Luc’s very first vinification was in 2017 and now he works with 4 hectares of vines.
Amb Amics is Catalan and means ‘with my friends’. It’s 60% Syrah on decomposed schist with carbonic maceration (10 days), 40% Grenache also on schist soil with carbonic maceration (18 days). The Syrah is aged in barrel for 5 months, then blended with the Grenache in stainless steel tanks for 2 months before bottling.
Explosive, juicy blackberry burst with hints of sweet spices and a eucalyptus finish. Extremly gulpable, it features subtle tannins, complimented by great acidity. Serve lightly chilled, and pair with tapas and friends.
