The wine region of Coteaux du Lyonnais
Southern Beaujolais AOC on the Monts du Lyonnais, granite and schist soils, semi-continental climate. Signature Gamay as red king (whole-cluster Beaujolais-style): gulpable and fruity with red cherry, raspberry, wild strawberry, banana and peppery touch, fine tannins and thirst-quenching palate — accessible juicy quaffer. Also fresh, gourmand rosés. Chardonnay and Aligoté as confidential whites (apple, citrus, blossom).
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: Generous
Full-bodied, rich and open wine, in principle with a good alcohol content but without excess (in this case the wine is said to be warm).
