The wine region of Bouches-du-Rhone
Provençal departmental IGP around Aix-en-Provence: signature dominant rosés (~50%) with pale robe and signature noses of red fruits or citrus, fresh and accessible. Mediterranean reds (~40%) — spicy Syrah, full-bodied Cabernet Sauvignon, Grenache, Merlot, Cinsault, Carignan and Caladoc in blends, soft round tannins. Whites (~10%) — Ugni, Clairette, Rolle, Bourboulenc and Chardonnay with fresh floral notes. IGP, Mediterranean climate.
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: Black Grenache
Grenache is a black grape variety that originated in Spain and is one of the great quality varieties of southern France. Sometimes vinified on its own, it is most often blended with one or more other Rhone or southern grape varieties with complementary qualities such as Syrah, Mourvèdre, Carignan or Cinsault. Its wines are warm, with aromas of red fruits (cherry) and spices; they oxidize with time. Vinified alone or in very large proportions, Grenache Noir also makes great natural sweet wines in Roussillon (Rivesaltes, Banyuls, Maury) and in the Rhône Valley (Rasteau).
