The wine region of Drôme
Rhône departmental IGP (junction of the Rhône corridor and Alpine foothills, gravelly alluvials in the north, marls and limestone on slopes, clay and sand in the south, Mediterranean, Mistral): Syrah, Grenache, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Gamay, Pinot Noir and Marselan as signature reds — full-bodied Grenache, lively and spicy Syrah, long ageing in blends. Viognier, Marsanne, Roussanne, Chardonnay and Clairette in floral fruity whites, 2,500-2,800 hours sun.
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: Rough
Wine without finesse with rough tannins.
