The wine region of Châtillon-en-Diois
AOC from the Drôme on the Alpes-Provence border (clay-limestone slopes with scree called "terres noires" at 500–600 m south-facing, sheltered by the Glandasse, Mediterranean with mountain influences, strong diurnal range). Gamay is the signature red (≥75 %) — fruity profile of fresh red fruits with spicy notes preserved by night-time coolness. Pinot Noir and Syrah complement. Aligoté and Chardonnay make fresh, aromatic whites without blending constraints.
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: Blanc de blancs (champagne)
Champagne made only from the Chardonnay grape. The expression has been somewhat overused by the intensive use made of it by certain large distributors of white table wines (or sparkling wines) who were thus seeking to promote their product.
