The word aristocrat comes from the Greek word aristokratia, which itself comes from the root words aristos, meaning "best," and kratos, meaning "rule."

Antiquity Aristocrat is a blend of 2020 Colombard and Sémillon is made in the “méthode traditionnelle”. This noble, naturally sparkling wine personifies the world of luxury and prosperity!


NEW RELEASES

Antiquity Aristocrat 2020
Naturally Sparkling Wine, Extra Brut
Colombard & Sémillon
Delicate, golden color and an intense play of fine bubbles. Complex and bright aroma with notes of citrus, green apple and nectarine. Harmonious and complex taste with autolyzed tones and well-integrated acids with a long and promising finish.

Antiquity Rosé Inanna 2023
46% Cinsault, 38% Grenache, 16% Syrah
Thracian Lowlands, Bulgaria
Beautiful pearly-pink color, soft nose with tangerine notes. The body is ethereal-light, with fruity, relatively juicy finish. Delicate rosé, dry, with medium length and good balance.

Contemplations 2022
70% Merlot 30% Malbec
Thracian Lowlands, Bulgaria
Characterized by an intense red color with a violet hue. A harmonious and concentrated aroma in which ripe red fruits, blackcurrants and vanilla intertwine. The rich taste of the wine, combined with elegance and balance, leads to a pronounced taste aroma and a long aftertaste.
