Discover the grape variety: Bachet

Light, fruity reds with a clear ruby robe, soft tannins and an airy palate, showing discreet aromas of red fruits (cherry, raspberry) typical of the Loire. Rustic, airy style for early drinking. Now nearly extinct, preserved in INRAE ampelographic collections, bearing witness to the pre-phylloxera varietal diversity of the Loire Valley. French indigenous black grape, formerly cultivated in the Centre-Val de Loire.

The wine region of Ventoux

High-altitude, cool southern Rhône (below the 1,912 m Giant of Provence): signature reds from Grenache and Syrah — round and supple with notes of cherry, raspberry, garrigue, pepper and a truffle touch with age, melted tannins, natural freshness and easy drinking (vs the sun-baked plains wines). Carignan, Cinsault and Mourvèdre as support. Lively, crunchy rosés (raspberry, flowers). Ample whites of Clairette, Roussanne, Bourboulenc, Vermentino.


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: Smooth

Said of a wine that has a mouthfeel reminiscent of the creamy texture of fats.
