Konrad was born in Italy, received his Master’s in viticulture and oenology in France, interned in Portugal and South Africa, and got his PhD in oenology and aroma science in Germany – all while running his family’s winery in Alto Adige. The guy is busy with wine, but it was the old bush vines he coincidentally discovered on leisurely hikes that led him to starting his own label, Domaine de l’Accent (in honor of his blended accent that many people couldn’t place).\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHis wildly fresh and dry \u003cem\u003e“Accenteur”\u003c\/em\u003e white blend is 30% Marsanne, 30% Bourboulenc, 30% Carignan Blanc, 5% Vermentino, and 5% Grenache Blanc – local varieties hand-picked from 5- to 70-year-old vines grown on small, terraced vineyards with rocky limestone soils. It is adventure, whimsy, and mountain air, bottled – and profoundly delightful at just $15 per bottle.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis is incredibly good – crisp, fresh, and citrusy, with lemon, lime, and grapefruit barreling from the glass alongside orange blossom and wisteria, plus a bit of flamed orange peel, wild green apples, wild herbs, a touch of creaminess, and a saline minerality on the memorable and lasting finish.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIt’s one of those wines you’ll reach for on every foreseeable hot day, whenever you’re looking for a weekend appetizer bottle, and perhaps as your own post-hike quencher. Such liveliness, intense aromas, and rich layers for only $15 is NOT common these days – especially from France – so do be sure to order plenty! \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"First Bottle","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52938186031401,"sku":"1013980","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0793\/2706\/8457\/files\/1013980_FB_Rack.jpg?v=1778539373","url":"https:\/\/firstbottlewines.com\/products\/domaine-de-laccent-accenteur-blanc-mont-baudile-2023","provider":"First Bottle Wines","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
