The Terroir is varied, but is largely characterized by the southern edge of the Alps and the Warm, DryMediterraneanClimate. Most of the vineyards are in the hills and valleys of the Alpine foothills, as the higher altitude provides an excellent ripening situation with abundant sunshine and cool nights. The Mistral wind from the North and sea breezes from the south often collide in the spring and autumn, creating periods of heavy rainfall that ensure the vines are well hydrated throughout the growing season.
