Discover the grape variety: Ignéa
Simple, dry grey-white wines with a pale rosé hue and coppery skin, a supple palate with moderate acidity, showing understated aromas of citrus and white flowers. Rustic southern profile. Almost disappeared from commercial cultivation, preserved in INRAE varietal collections, it testifies to the pre-phylloxera ampelographic diversity of the southern vineyard. Native French grey variety, formerly grown in the south-east.

Grenache, Cinsault, Syrah and native Tibouren in the blend. A few fleshy Mediterranean reds (Mourvèdre, Syrah) and saline Vermentino whites.
The wine region of Provence
World capital of dry, refined rosé (~90% of production). Pale rose-petal colour, delicate nose of fresh red fruits (strawberry, raspberry, redcurrant), citrus (pink grapefruit), white flowers and a mineral touch, taut and thirst-quenching palate — the Mediterranean aperitif par excellence. Blends of Grenache, Cinsault, Syrah, Tibouren and Mourvèdre. Fleshy Bandol reds from Mourvèdre (leather, garrigue, age-worthy), straight Cassis whites.
The word of the wine: Blanc de noirs (champagne)
