OUR AUTUMN SELECTION<br />
The third session of 2022<br />
Once again, the third session of tastings was very promising with wines running the gamut<br />
from new discoveries, reliable choices and the classics to more exotic and rare offerings but<br />
also the household names. Countless producer countries now take part, confirming day after<br />
day the Gilbert & Gaillard International Challenge’s virtually global reach.<br />
TYPICAL COUNTRYSIDE IN THE FRANCIACORTA REGION AND APPELLATION IN LOMBARDY (VIGNETI CENCI).<br />
THE BEST OF AUTUMN 2022<br />
Our selection for this quarter takes you on a journey to Bordeaux, Castilla y León, the Western Cape and<br />
Lombardy. We turn the spotlight on Crus Bourgeois, the major category of Bordeaux wine which in 2020<br />
gained a newly minted classification. We also celebrate wines from Ribera del Duero, Cigales, Toro and<br />
Rueda, some absolute gems from a Spanish region which is increasingly gaining traction. Find out which<br />
are South Africa’s most earth-friendly wines in our extensive selection of organic and sustainable offerings,<br />
and learn more about Franciacorta and its delectable sparkling wines, probably Italy’s finest.<br />
