Vins et Volailles are an all-female wine collective in Paris making and distributing some of the most inventive and exciting French wines today. In founder Fleur Godart's own words: "Here's our plan: to throw delicious bottles at the face of patriarchy. We want to create a safe space for feminism on labels, devoted to fighting all forms of oppression."
Putes Feministes is simply one of the best orange wines we've tried this year. Made from Alsatian Gewurztraminer macerated on skins for 10 days, it's light and gluggable yet insanely complex. Rosewater, tropical guava and pineapple plus ripe citrus with a salty finish. Great name and label also!
