This wine hits you with citrus on the nose but rounds that off nicely with complex notes and a good length with a soft finish.

Mathilde and Pablo originally worked in the restaurant industry, her as a trained cook and he in the front of house specialising in natural wine. Slowly they drifted away from restaurants to making their wine under Les Volatiles. In 2021, they opened Uva, an urban winery located in Sète, a small town in the south of France. They produce small quantities of various wines, from petnats, to skin contact whites and reds. They have a small plot of Carignan with wild abandoned vines surrounding them and they also harvest organic grapes from producers they know and bring them to their cellar to ferment only under indigenous yeasts. All the winemaking, ageing and bottling is done, of course, without any additives. They are only producing small batches of wine at the moment but have big plans for the future and some amazing flavours too!
