The wine region of Rhône septentrional

Northern Rhône from Vienne to Valence, steep terraced slopes on granite and gneiss. Syrah signature red king: dense and deep with notes of blackberry, blackcurrant, violet, black pepper, olive, smoked bacon, garrigue and mineral touch, firm tannins and long aging — Côte-Rôtie, Hermitage, Cornas, Saint-Joseph, Crozes-Hermitage. Prestigious whites: opulent Viognier in Condrieu (apricot, white flowers), full Marsanne and Roussanne in Hermitage and Saint-Péray. World references.


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: Black Grenache

Grenache is a black grape variety that originated in Spain and is one of the great quality varieties of southern France. Sometimes vinified on its own, it is most often blended with one or more other Rhone or southern grape varieties with complementary qualities such as Syrah, Mourvèdre, Carignan or Cinsault. Its wines are warm, with aromas of red fruits (cherry) and spices; they oxidize with time. Vinified alone or in very large proportions, Grenache Noir also makes great natural sweet wines in Roussillon (Rivesaltes, Banyuls, Maury) and in the Rhône Valley (Rasteau).
