Triple Jump Wine Tasting
Saturday, 1 April 2023
14:00-18:00
Featuring wines from Beaujolais, Rhône Valley and Greece.
From Beaujolais, you get a taste of Domaine Saint-Cyr’s Beaujolais La Galoche. This light and fruity Gamay is loaded with berry flavors like cherries and strawberries, a touch of baking spice and has light fruit tartness. The wine underwent carbonic fermentation for a week and spent 6 months in concrete tanks. It is unfined and unfiltred, a delicious, joyful and easy-to-drink Beaujolais.
Moving on to the Rhône Valley to Laurent Clapier’s Mas Théo estate we present two of their distinct blends.
Mogul is a delicate and fresh blend of Marsanne, Roussanne, Viognier and Grenache Blanc, co-fermented to encourage integration of flavors. A rich, fruity and friendly white wine.
While Ginger is a more robust and tannic orange wine with notes of honey, medicinal herbs, orange peel and clove on the nose, thanks to its 2-week skin contact and slow ferment in underground limestone caves.

Finally, you will meet one of the finest quality sparkling wines from Domaine Karanika straight from enchanting Macedonia, Greece. The vineyards in the Amyndeo plateau produce old ungrafted Xinomavro vines, Assyrtiko and the almost forgotten Limniona, resulting in excellent sparkling wines. The Domaine Karanika Cuvee Rose Extra Brut 2021 is a blend of Xinomavro and Limniona, while the Cuvee Speciale Extra Brut 2020 is a blend of Xinomavro and Assyrtiko. Both wines received rave reviews by experts of Champagne and confirm every year the uniqueness of the Amyntaio terroir for sparkling wines.
