The wine region of Collines Rhodaniennes
Very dynamic IGP of the northern Rhône (Ardèche, Drôme, Isère, Loire, Rhône): Syrah signature as king red — dense, deep and mineral with notes of blackcurrant, blackberry, violet, black pepper and a dark-fruit touch, fresh palate with fine tannins and lovely length. Viognier signature as king white — opulent and aromatic (apricot, peach, white flowers, honey). Roussanne and Marsanne as complements. Syrah-Viognier co-fermentation à la Côte-Rôtie.
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: Lamb's lettuce
Characteristic of fleshy and consistent wines giving the impression of being chewed.
