The wine region of Côtes-du-Rhône-Villages
Higher tier of the southern Rhône: generous, structured reds dominated by Grenache (fruit, warmth, roundness), Syrah (colour, spice, elegance) and Mourvèdre (depth and ageing) — ≥66% of the trio. Aromas of ripe black fruits, pepper, liquorice, garrigue and leather with age. Also some lively rosés and whites on Grenache Blanc, Clairette and Viognier. Excellent value between Côtes-du-Rhône and prestige appellations, from everyday to medium ageing.
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: 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.
