The wine region of Costières-de-Nîmes
A link between the southern Rhône and the Languedoc (the Rhône's southern tip, Gard): signature Syrah-Grenache reign in reds (≥50%) — fruity and structured with ripe black fruit (blackberry, blueberry), cherry, raspberry, plum, mirabelle and a spicy touch, supple tannins and a fresh finish. Dense Mourvèdre, Carignan and Cinsault complement, Marselan a modern touch. Lively rosés. Ample whites (Grenache Blanc, Roussanne).
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: Aging on lees
Maturing on the lees enhances the stability, aromatic complexity and texture of white wines, which gain in body and volume. This phenomenon is induced by autolysis, the process of self-degradation of the lees.
