The wine region of Côtes-du-Rhône-Villages
Higher tier of the southern Rhône: generous, structured reds dominated by Grenache (fruit, warmth, roundness), Syrah (colour, spice, elegance) and Mourvèdre (depth and ageing) — ≥66% of the trio. Aromas of ripe black fruits, pepper, liquorice, garrigue and leather with age. Also some lively rosés and whites on Grenache Blanc, Clairette and Viognier. Excellent value between Côtes-du-Rhône and prestige appellations, from everyday to medium ageing.
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: Noble rot
A fungus called botrytis cinerea that develops during the over-ripening phase, an ally of great sweet white wines, when it concentrates the juice of the berries. It requires the humidity of morning fogs and beautiful sunny days, gives musts very rich in sugar and brings to the wines the famous taste of "roasted".
