The wine region of Châtillon-en-Diois
AOC from the Drôme on the Alpes-Provence border (clay-limestone slopes with scree called "terres noires" at 500–600 m south-facing, sheltered by the Glandasse, Mediterranean with mountain influences, strong diurnal range). Gamay is the signature red (≥75 %) — fruity profile of fresh red fruits with spicy notes preserved by night-time coolness. Pinot Noir and Syrah complement. Aligoté and Chardonnay make fresh, aromatic whites without blending constraints.
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: Complex
Said of a rich and concentrated wine offering a wide range of aromas and a tasty mouthfeel.
