Abbotts

<h1>Abbotts</h1> <h3>Our philiosophy is to produce wines that are of the highest quality from the appellation areas in the South of France with tannin ripeness so they can be enjoued young, or cellared for many years. ABBOTTS wines are marketed under recognisable brands with contemporary, appealing packaging.</h3> Created in 1996 by Nerida Abbott and Nigel Sneyd, “ABBOTTS” has been bringing a modern approach to already known appellations in the South of France. Each aspect of the chain, from fruit selection, vinification, maturation, bottling and marketing is treated with equal importance to create fresh, complex wines under recognisable brands with contemporary, appealing packaging. Bought in 2005 by Badet Clément, a well recognised company for its quality Vins de Pays d’Oc, Maison Abbotts has kept the strong values of the brand : - Great skill in selection, aging and elaboration of remarkable wines. - A modern and elegant marketing - A rigorous and controlled process, from vinification to bottling. - Exclusive qualities of the wines. Today ABBOTTS proposes a range and a Signature which clearly illustrates the great potential of the Languedoc Roussillon, and enhance the possibility of the Syrah. <h3>It's in the French papers...</h3> 15.09.09 Le Nouvel Observateur, Challenges, Cuisines a & d : Zéphyr is in the French papers - Le Nouvel Observateur : "a pretty Chardonnay coming from the "terroir" - Challenges : "a pretty Chardonnay, with nice citrus hints and a delicious freshness on the palate" - Cuisine a&d :"a top-ranking Limoux. Zéphyr, a great wine exclusively for wine lovers, who will appreciate its elegance, its style and its refinement." <a href='http://www.abbotts-wine.com/fr/' title=' Version Française'>Version
