The wine region of Tavel
Only exclusively rosé cru of the Southern Rhône (right bank, AOC 1936): signature Grenache as rosé king (≤60%) — bright pink robe with onion-skin reflections with age, signature round, generous and structured profile with ripe red fruit aromas, flowers and floral touch in youth, evolving spicy and peppery after 3-6 years. 9 authorized varieties (Syrah, Mourvèdre, Cinsault, Clairette, Bourboulenc, Carignan, Picpoul). Rolled pebbles, sands, limestone.
The wine region of Rhone Valley
France's 2nd-largest AOC vineyard, two complementary worlds. Northern: pure Syrah in signature reds (Côte-Rôtie, Hermitage, Cornas), deep and peppery with blackberry, violet, black olive and smoked bacon notes, exceptional ageing. Opulent Viognier whites (Condrieu, apricot, flowers) and ample Marsanne-Roussanne. Southern: sun-soaked Grenache blends at Châteauneuf, Gigondas, Vacqueyras (candied fruit, garrigue).
The word of the wine: Secondary aromas
Aromas resulting from the fermentation and maturation of the wine before bottling. The aging in barrels modifies considerably the texture and the flavours of the wine.
