The wine region of Clairette de Bellegarde
Micro-AOC single-varietal from the Gard (10 ha around Bellegarde at the gates of the Camargue, stony plateau at 60 m, well-drained clay-silica soils). Clairette as exclusive signature white — delicate and expressive with lively notes of lime blossom, acacia, honeysuckle, pear, citrus and a saline-Mediterranean touch; characteristic noble slight bitterness. Evolves with age toward honey and candied lime. Southern sister of Clairette du Languedoc.
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).
