The wine region of Côtes du Vivarais
Rhodanian AOP above the Ardèche gorges (Gras plateau, argilo-calcareous soils, Mistral, Mediterranean): Grenache and Syrah as signature reds, complemented by Cinsault and Marselan — profile of fleshy dark fruits and spiced notes, fairly firm tannins balanced by pleasant freshness, Grenache providing structure and warmth, Syrah adding a northern peppery note. Grenache Blanc with Clairette, Marsanne, Viognier and Roussanne as floral whites.
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: White winemaking
White wines are obtained by fermentation of the juice after pressing. A pre-fermentation maceration is sometimes practiced to extract the aromatic substances from the skins. White wines are normally made from white grapes, but can also be made from red grapes (blanc de noirs). The grapes are then pressed as soon as they arrive at the vat house without maceration in order to prevent the colouring matter contained in the skins from "staining" the wine.
