The Rives-Blanques chardonnay-chenin Pays d’Oc was again selected by the respected Belgian wine writer Frank van der Auwera in his just-published Wijnkoopgids 2012, a guide to the 300 best wines in Belgium below € 10.00.

Twice named Wine World Ambassador of the Year, and winner of the Prix Louis Marinier, Frank van der Auwera couples a creative pen with a sharp nose to produce perceptive and highly enjoyable tasting notes.
