At the beginning of the 20^th century, wine from Bordeaux was transported all over the world. The ships that transported the wine also transported salt. Legend has it that one ship was caught in a storm and a few barrels of red wine cracked open. The wine spilt out onto the deck and was soaked up by neighbouring bags of salt. A few foodbuffs decided to turn this accident to their advantage and began to trade this wonderful mix !

That’s how this unique salt with red wine came about !

Today, this Vigneron salt is made by local craftsmen. Its sweet and delicate notes are perfect with vegetable mash, pot-au-feu stew or cream sauces. Delicious with a rib of beef, scallops, game, or a simple summer salad.
