The wine region of Côtes-du-Rhône-Villages
Higher tier of the southern Rhône: generous, structured reds dominated by Grenache (fruit, warmth, roundness), Syrah (colour, spice, elegance) and Mourvèdre (depth and ageing) — ≥66% of the trio. Aromas of ripe black fruits, pepper, liquorice, garrigue and leather with age. Also some lively rosés and whites on Grenache Blanc, Clairette and Viognier. Excellent value between Côtes-du-Rhône and prestige appellations, from everyday to medium ageing.
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: Saignée (rosé de)
Rosé wine made from a vat of black grapes after a short maceration period.
