A light-colored Humagne that pairs perfectly with autumnal dishes
A charming Humagne Rouge that departs from its image as a rustic cru. It is crisp and silky, with tannins that evolve in a disciplined yet somewhat virile manner. Delicious with a full-bodied cheese, this robust, velvety Humagne is also at home alongside a mushroom terrine or toast.

StoryIn July 1921, Germaine and Cécile discovered the Paris of the Roaring Twenties. The city was being transformed by Art Deco construction, and cheap brasseries were very popular. Wine was served with pomp and delicacy and was considered to be a sign of social achievement.
