The wine region of Beaumes-de-Venise
Two-faced Southern Rhône cru (Vaucluse): signature Muscat de Beaumes-de-Venise VDN from Muscat à Petits Grains as sweet white king — pale to golden robe with signature aromas of white flowers, tropical fruits and exceptional length, fortification ≥15% alcohol, toffee evolution with age. Powerful reds in the sister AOC (Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre). VDN AOC 1945, foot of the Dentelles de Montmirail, clay-sand soils.
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: Sulphur
An antiseptic and antioxidant substance known since antiquity, probably already used by the Romans. But it was only in modern times that its use was rediscovered. It will allow a better conservation of the wine and thus favour its export. Sulphur also gave the 18th century winegrower the possibility of extending the maceration period without fearing that the wine would turn sour and thus go from dark rosé wines to the red wines of today. Excessive sulphur, on the other hand, kills happiness, paralysing the aromas and causing headaches.
