An honor, a recognition, a reward, a privilege… these are the first words that come to us. It is obvious that each new partnership with a House wines ambassador delights us, and there are aloso those who are a little more particular, by virtue of their History, values, and proximity which consolidate us in this search for excellence. Many thanks to the Troisgros Family for making room for us on one of the most beautiful tables in the world.

HONORED

2021 INTERNATIONAL GAMAY COMPETITION: GOLD MEDAL FOR OUR CUVÉE TRADITION 2020


In many countries, one of the first criteria for 
selecting a wine is the grape variety. 
The objectives of the International Gamay 
competition are simple: to select the best Gamays 
in the world and to discover the qualities, 
diversity and characteristics of this incredible 
grape: a fruity, easy-drinking, low-tannic, 
complex wine with real aging potential. Each year, 
130 tasters, made up of wine experts and 
professionals, judge more than 600 samples.
This year again, Le Nid was awarded, to our 
greatest pleasure, the Gold Medal for our 
2020 Tradition Cuvée... 
it rests wisely in the cellar before enjoying it!
