Clairette de Bellegarde is a small Dry white wine appellation located in the southernmost Part of the Rhone Valley in France. The wines are produced from the Clairette grape only in the parish of Bellegarde. It is located halfway between the cities of Arles and Nîmes and only 30 kilometers from the Mediterranean coast. The appellation has only about 40 hectares of vines.
However, Bellegarde also produces wines sold under the Costières de Nîmes appellation. Created in June 1949, the Clairette de Bellegarde appellation was intended to distinguish the more usual style of southern French wines from the unique style of Bellegarde's Clairette production. Clairette de Bellegarde wines are intended for early drinking - although the French name Bellegarde suggests "belle garde". They are produced exclusively from the Clairette grape and can be compared to similar wines from the Coteaux de Die appellation of the Eastern Rhône.

Marsanne is a white grape variety that originated in Montélimar in the Drôme, several centuries ago. Marsanne is also found in Cassis, Savoie, Languedoc-Roussillon and Saint-Péray in the Ardèche, where it produces remarkable sparkling wines. The warm, sunny climate of the Rhone Valley, Languedoc-Roussillon and Provence, as well as the dry, stony soil, are ideal conditions for its development. Its bunches are quite large and provide small, juicy berries that are sensitive to grey rot and strong winds. These two grape varieties complement each other perfectly: together they give light wines with little acidity, aromas of yellow fruit, white fruit and flowers with notes of honey and liquorice. This is for example what the appellations Saint-Péray, Hermitage, Crozes-Hermitage, Saint-Joseph, Côtes-du-Vallée du Rhône, Corbières, or Cassis express... which represent about 700 hectares.
