CUVEE LE BOSQ ROUGE VIN DE PAYS DU GARD
For more than 100 years the Delaunay family has produced and also acted as négociant éleveurs in Burgundy. Catherine and Laurent Delaunay, fourth generation of the family involved in wine, founded their own company Badet Clément & Cie.

Here they have created wines that express flair and individuality of the region.
