Discover the grape variety: Roi des noirs
Light, simple fruity reds with a pale ruby robe, smooth tannins and an airy palate with moderate acidity, showing understated red fruit aromas. Discreet rustic profile. Preserved in a few ampelographic collections for its heritage value, it belongs to the ancient varieties whose commercial spread has nearly vanished, studied for their genetic interest. Rare black variety, little documented, grown in confidential quantities.

The wine region of Frankland River
Most productive sub-region of Great Southern in Western Australia (1,600 ha at 150-300 m): Riesling flagship white — dry and taut with chiseled citrus notes and saline minerality, distinct freshness from northern warm Rieslings. Cabernet Sauvignon reference flagship red — elegant and structured, black fruits and fine tannins. Also peppery Shiraz and lively Chardonnay. Mediterranean climate tempered by the Southern Ocean 80 km away, fresh and mineral identity.
The wine region of Australie de l'Ouest
Australian premium on Margaret River. Signature Bordeaux Cabernet-Merlot blends in red: deep and refined with notes of ripe blackcurrant, eucalyptus, cedar and graphite, firm tannins and great ageing, often compared to Médoc. Chardonnay rated Australia's best: taut, saline and mineral (lemon, hazelnut, brioche). Lively Sauvignon-Sémillon (citrus, cut grass).
The word of the wine: R-C (champagne)
Harvesting-cooperator. It is the cooperative which elaborates the champagne of its members from their mixed contributions. It gives them bottles on which they stick their own label. It is legal without being intellectually honest. When you walk around the Champagne region, you may come across signs that say "Vigneron récoltant" to indicate a member of a cooperative. You can always ask him where his vats and press are.
