The wine region of Saint-Joseph
Northern Rhône cru on the right bank (Ardèche, Loire): signature Syrah as the exclusive king red - refined and structured with notes of black fruits (blackcurrant, blackberry), raspberry, violet, pepper, spices, liquorice and an undergrowth touch, softer tannins than Cornas or Hermitage, seductive fruit-structure balance. Marsanne and Roussanne in ample whites (peach, apricot, honey, white flowers). AOC (1956) over 26 communes, south-facing slopes, granite, schist and gneiss. Ageing 3-10 years.
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: Côte des Bar
This is the name given to the vineyards of the Aube, which are closer to Burgundy, and some of the wines produced here bear witness to this proximity. The pinot noir dominates, the meunier is practically absent. Two crus have become references: Riceys, where a rosé without bubbles is also produced, and Montgueux near Troyes, renowned for its Chardonnay.
