Discover the grape variety: Kernling

Aromatic, structured whites and pale rosés with a pinkish-skinned robe, a supple palate with preserved acidity. Signature muscat-style aromas, white flowers and yellow fruits inherited from the Kerner. Productive and early ripening. Grown on small surfaces in Germany (Württemberg) in blended white and rosé cuvées. A grey German variety, a reddish-skinned mutation of the Kerner, obtained at Weinsberg.

The wine region of Châteauneuf-du-Pape

Pinnacle of great southern Rhône reds, up to 13 blended grapes: signature Grenache as king — powerful and structured with notes of black cherry, kirsch, garrigue, leather, tar and sweet spices, firm tannins when young and gamey complexity with ageing. Deep Syrah, dense Mourvèdre and supple Cinsault complete it. Rare full whites (Grenache Blanc, Clairette, Roussanne) with almond, anise, honeysuckle notes. Legendary AOC (1936), rolled pebbles, mistral and sun.


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: Musty (taste of)

A disgusting taste due to a defect in the grapes or, more commonly, a defect in the barrel.
