Petit Paradis is a little bit of paradise in your glass. A blend of 60% Grenache Blanc, 20% Marsanne, 20% Vermentino, the wine has an aromatic bouquet of rich fruit with good body and a long pleasing finish. Serve chilled with white meats and seafood.

The 2018 Foncalielu Petit Paradis Saint Chinian opens with quite an inviting aroma of honeysuckle and a little tropical fruit.

Tasking a sip reveals lots of tasty fruit in this smooth and refreshing wine. It’s not terribly complex but it is easy to drink. There’s lots of apple along with a bit of tropical fruit. Light honey accents and just a hint of nutty note lead into the dry, short finish.
