The wine region of Costières-de-Nîmes
A link between the southern Rhône and the Languedoc (the Rhône's southern tip, Gard): signature Syrah-Grenache reign in reds (≥50%) — fruity and structured with ripe black fruit (blackberry, blueberry), cherry, raspberry, plum, mirabelle and a spicy touch, supple tannins and a fresh finish. Dense Mourvèdre, Carignan and Cinsault complement, Marselan a modern touch. Lively rosés. Ample whites (Grenache Blanc, Roussanne).
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: Pinot meunier
Cultivated in the 19th century in all the northern vineyards, this black grape variety has largely regressed since. Very present in the Marne valley, it constitutes a third of the vineyards in Champagne, alongside pinot noir and chardonnay with which it is often blended. It brings roundness and red and yellow fruit aromas to champagnes. Pinot meunier is also the dominant grape variety in red and rosé wines in the Orleans AOC and the rare Touraine-Noble-Joué, a grey wine. Syn.: meunier.
