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: Runoff
Failure of the vine flower to fertilize at the time of flowering, when the weather is too cold or rainy. Under these conditions, the vine will have few or no clusters.
