Lots of customers associate the Cabalié name with a richly flavoursome red made to a style that reputedly invigorated Roman centurions 2,000 years ago. Now meet its white equivalent. It is rounded, ripe, crisp and terrifically versatile.

Cabalié’s popularity is down to a rare combination of imposing richness and easy drinking smoothness. Recreating that in white, with an added buzz of freshness, was no easy task. But Cabalié maestro Hervé Sabardeil has done it – years of searching, blending and hard work come to fruition in this, his ultimate expression of a southern French white. The grape mix is Viognier for honeysuckle aroma and texture, Muscat for aromatic grapey notes, and Colombard to keep it all crisp and zesty. Of course, the other key ingredients are bright, southern French sunshine, which ripens the grapes to perfection, and Mediterranean breezes, which keep them fresh and healthy. Bursting with tropical fruit, Cabalié is great solo, at a barbecue or with chicken.
