Discover the grape variety: Bourboulenc

Fresh and aromatic whites with an ample palate and preserved acidity despite the sun, on discreet aromas of white flowers (broom), citrus, exotic fruits, fennel and saline marine notes. Very late-ripening, retaining freshness in hot climates. Essential component of white Châteauneuf-du-Pape AOC, white Côtes-du-Rhône and Bandol blanc, and the absolute signature of La Clape AOC. Native southern French variety with very late ripening.

The wine region of Châteauneuf-du-Pape

Pinnacle of great southern Rhône reds, up to 13 blended grapes: signature Grenache as king — powerful and structured with notes of black cherry, kirsch, garrigue, leather, tar and sweet spices, firm tannins when young and gamey complexity with ageing. Deep Syrah, dense Mourvèdre and supple Cinsault complete it. Rare full whites (Grenache Blanc, Clairette, Roussanne) with almond, anise, honeysuckle notes. Legendary AOC (1936), rolled pebbles, mistral and sun.


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: Grand cru classé

In the Bordeaux region, this refers to certain châteaux in the Médoc and also in Saint-Émilion which are classified.
