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: Tertiary aromas
Aromas resulting from the aging of the wine in the bottle. The aromas evolve with time, from fresh fruitiness to notes of stewed, candied or dried fruit, to aromas of venison or undergrowth.
