Discover the grape variety: Procanico

Simple and lively dry whites with a pale golden robe, a supple palate and preserved acidity, with understated aromas of citrus (lemon), white flowers, white-fleshed fruits (pear, apple) and herbal notes. A thirst-quenching profile to drink young. An essential component of the Orvieto DOC appellation in Umbria, defining the viticultural identity of central Italy around Orvieto. Italian synonym for Trebbiano Toscano grown in Umbria, a productive white grape.

The wine region of Gigondas

Full-bodied cru of the southern Rhone at the foot of the Dentelles de Montmirail: signature Grenache as king red (>=50%) with Syrah and Mourvedre — powerful and sun-soaked with notes of candied black fruits (blackberry, blackcurrant, plum), garrigue, kirsch, spices, licorice and pepper, dense tannins and a long finish (14-15% alcohol), more structured than Chateauneuf. Lively roses. AOC (1971), ~1,200 ha on the eponymous village (Vaucluse), limestone and clay-sandy soils, ages 5-15 years.


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: Tired

Wine that is too old, faded or has suffered from handling such as racking or bottling. In the first case it is too late, in the second case the wine must be put to rest for a few weeks in the cellar.
