Discover the grape variety: Areni
Structured, elegant reds with a deep ruby robe, firm yet polished tannins and a dense palate with preserved acidity. Signature aromas of red fruits (cherry, raspberry), black fruits (blackberry), spices and high-altitude mineral notes. Fine Caucasian ageing potential. Grown at altitude in the Vayots Dzor, star of modern Armenian viticulture with growing international recognition. Native Armenian black grape, among the oldest in the world (traces from 4,100 BC).

The wine region of Coteaux Varois en Provence
Provençal AOC of the Var hinterland (28 villages, ~2,229 ha) tempered by the Sainte-Baume massif. Signature rosés dominate (91%): pale robe with signature notes of strawberry, grapefruit, white peach, flowers (rose, garrigue) and a citrus touch, fresh and thirst-quenching palate — more structured and mineral than the coast thanks to altitude. Cinsault, Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre at the base, local Tibouren. Supple cherry-garrigue reds, Rolle and Clairette whites.
The wine region of Provence
World capital of dry, refined rosé (~90% of production). Pale rose-petal colour, delicate nose of fresh red fruits (strawberry, raspberry, redcurrant), citrus (pink grapefruit), white flowers and a mineral touch, taut and thirst-quenching palate — the Mediterranean aperitif par excellence. Blends of Grenache, Cinsault, Syrah, Tibouren and Mourvèdre. Fleshy Bandol reds from Mourvèdre (leather, garrigue, age-worthy), straight Cassis whites.
The word of the wine: Bitter
Normal for certain young red wines rich in tannin, bitterness is in other cases a defect due to a bacterial disease.
