One bottle per Raisin team member! 

To finish off 2024 we wanted to share a wine recommendation from each of the Raisin team members. How many have you tried?

Jean-Hugues Bretin - Jack of all trades

Wine recommendation : Le P’tit Blanc du Tue-Bœuf, Zoé et Thierry Puzelat, Loire Valley
Why? My first natural wine turned into an emotion (now named Vin blanc).

Jean-Hugues

 

Nathalie Alves - Partner

Wine recommendation : La Fraîcheur 2, Jan Tailler, Auxerrois, Pinot noir, Gamay, Pinot Gris, Alsace-Lorraine
Why?  The title says it all: super fresh, super good white wine from Jan Tailler, based in Lorraine. Low alcohol, lots of freshness. Perfect to start the aperitif.

Laura Doggen - Sr. Product Manager

Wine recommendation : Mu Ska-T, Anna, André & Yann Durrmann, Muscat, Alsace-Lorraine, 2024.
Why? Because it’s always time for a good Pet Nat from Durrmann; Family brunch, ápero, raclette, or even with a dessert! Mu Ska-T is the best!

Elena Amprimo - Head of Italy & Wine Team

Wine recommendation : Les P'tits Bouts, Mickaël Bourg, Syrah, Carnas 2021. 
Why? “Les P’tits Bouts” 2021 combines juicy cherry, raspberry, black pepper, and a touch of chocolate. Smooth, rich, and perfectly balanced, it’s ideal for holiday meals!

Viktoriia Gauthier - QA engineer

Wine recommendation : T’ara rà, Cantina Giardino, Greco, Campania.
Why? I was very surprised after trying this wine, because even after just one little sip, you get a lot of taste in your mouth. It's the perfect white wine for colder days for me.

Benjamin Dupas - Volunteer & Wine Team

Wine recommendation  : Le Grand Papa, Lavaux, Gamay, Fabien Vallelian, 2023.
Why? Old vines from 1957 that the grand father of Fabien planted it after the big frost. Just emotion.
