Pyrène Côtes de Gascogne Cuvée Marine
L’incontournable – a french word found on the bottle of Pyrène Côtes de Gascogne Cuvée Marine… what does it mean? The Essential.
The Colorado Avalanche are a team that blends three essential elements of successful hockey in order to produce a perennial cup contender. The three elements? Speed, Skill, Ruggedeness.
Similar to the Avalanche, Pyrène Côtes de Gascogne Cuvée Marine blends three essential grape varieties Colombard, Sauvignon Blanc and Gros Manseng.
The results for both the Avalanche and Pyrène are unmatched and guarantee an enjoyable evening of wine and hockey. Or perhaps we can say “une soirée incontournable”
