Winery Description
The concept of French Touch originated in the early eighties in the music industry with the famous Palace night club in Paris and a generation of world famous DJs such as David Guetta and Bob Sinclar as well as bands as Daft Punks.
This style developed by those musicians was called the “French touch".
This concept of French Touch can be applied to other fields and fashion is one of them. The unique style of fashion designers such as Coco Chanel, Yves St Laurent ,Christian Dior, and Christian Lacroix to name a few has illuminated the fashion industry for decades.
But the concept of ”French Touch” definitely makes lots of sense in the wine world where there is definitely a “French touch” in the style of French wines versus new world wines.
Less forward fruit, more elegance, balance and complexity.
