Glugworthy Grolleau in all its glory.

Grolleau is often given the short end of this stick but this deep purple varietal actually makes some pretty darn good wine – at least Julien Rousselot sure seems to think so. A lighter-than-air red with just a bit of carbon dioxide for a little added lift. Picture ripe black fruits with plenty of thirst-quenching acidity, making this wine a thing of pure beauty.

Julien Rousselot initially worked within the socio-cultural sector, but discovered the love of wine after a wine bar was opened in the mid 2000s.
He eventually settled in Rablay-sur-Layon and began apprenticing under winemakers within the region to learn the art of winemaking.
In the vineyard, the vines are tended to organically and the vinification process has as little intervention as possible.
