Domaine d'Ici La - Les Oubliés 2022

(Bugey, France)

A very unique orange wine from a single, high altitude vineyard. This blend of Pinot Gris, Altesse, and Chardonnay spends a few weeks on skins and is aged in concrete. A very expressive stone-fuit driven nose leads to a complex palate with a very long finish. A very pure, layered and intriguing orange wine that will slowly reveal itself over a few glasses.

Young couple Florie Brunet and Adrien Bariol established Domaine d’Ici La  in 2017, enchanted by the rugged and mountainous landscape, the local grapes, and the possibility to make their mark on a lesser known appellation, yet one with immense potential as displayed throughout their range.
