Terre Exotique Vintner's Salt: red wine salt that enhances foie gras

Bless the vintner who spilled his wine into his salt! From this meeting between salt crystals and Bordeaux red wine was born a purple-hued condiment, as beautiful on the plate as it is delicious on the palate.

A pinch that changes everything on foie gras

Sprinkle a few crystals over a slice of Semi-Cooked foie gras or a pan-seared escalope, just before serving. Its red fruit notes, woody touch and peppery hint bring out the foie gras's richness without ever overpowering it. A simple gesture that makes all the difference at the table.

A fine, fragrant salt for all your cooking

Beyond foie gras, vintner's salt pairs wonderfully with ribeye steak, duck breast, scallops or game dishes. Try it too on beef carpaccio, roasted potatoes, a tomato and mozzarella salad, or even grilled peaches for a surprising dessert.

A story born in Gironde

At the beginning of the 20th century, sailing ships transported salt and wine along the Gironde. One stormy day, barrels of red wine overturned on deck and colored the salt crystals. A few Bordeaux food lovers tasted the mixture and decided to make it a specialty.
