Completer

May I introduce: Completer, the Graubünden grape variety par excellence. An heirloom of the Romans, later cultivated by the monasteries as a mass wine and finally named after the last prayer of the day, the Completorium. Why the monks named this wine after their last task of the day leaves room for speculation, doesn't it? Roman makes two versions of the Completer: he ages this one more carefully in wood, using only about a third new barrels. The wine smells incredibly delicious, like ripe yellow apples, a super neat mix of exotic fruits and already quite mineral, like chalk. Wow, and on the palate, it really gets down to business. The wine displays Burgundian qualities and drinks like a tremendously good Chassagne-Montrachet from my favorite Joseph Colin. Yes, that's right, pick up a Burgundy glass from Gassel and the wine will go through the roof! You'll see.
