The wine region of Vaucluse
Vast southern IGP between Ventoux, Luberon and the Rhône: signature Grenache, Syrah and Mourvèdre as fruity, sun-drenched reds with notes of cherry, raspberry, blackberry, garrigue (thyme, rosemary), Mediterranean spices and a peppery touch, supple tannins and a moreish finish. Cinsault and Carignan in support. Signature fresh rosés (strawberry, citrus). Viognier, Grenache Blanc and Clairette in whites.
The wine region of Méditerranée
Vast IGP of south-east France (Provence, Vaucluse, Var, Corsica, Ardèche), 75% rosés. Fresh, fruity rosés with signature notes of strawberry, raspberry, citrus, white flowers and a Mediterranean touch, taut and thirst-quenching on the palate — the quintessential sunny aperitif. Supple reds blending Grenache, Syrah, Cabernet and Merlot (red fruits, garrigue, spice), full whites of Viognier (apricot, flowers) and Chardonnay. Generous everyday wines, expression of the south.
The word of the wine: Wine library
Cellar in which are kept bottles that retrace the history of a domain, a vintage, an exceptional wine, etc., and which constitute a collection. It is also said of a place that offers a very wide choice of wines served by the glass. The oenotheques are more and more widespread in the living rooms opened to the public.
