Origin

Produced in the Saint-Joseph appellation, located in the Northern Rhône Valley, France. This region is renowned for its steep granite slopes and continental climate, ideal for cultivating high-quality white grapes.

Variety

The wine is primarily made from the Marsanne grape variety, which is typical for white wines from the Saint-Joseph appellation.

Production

The grapes are hand-harvested and carefully selected to ensure optimal ripeness. Vinification involves gentle pressing followed by fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks to preserve freshness and aromatic complexity. The wine may undergo a period of aging on fine lees to enhance texture and complexity before bottling.

Tasting notes

  • Appearance: Pale golden color with greenish reflections.
  • Aroma: Intense and elegant bouquet featuring white flowers, citrus fruits, and subtle hints of honey and almond.
  • Palate: Well-balanced with a rich and creamy texture, fresh acidity, and flavors of ripe pear, apricot, and a touch of minerality. The finish is long and harmonious.

Food pairings

  • Seafood dishes such as grilled scallops, lobster, or shrimp.
  • White meats including roasted chicken or turkey with herbs.
  • Soft cheeses like goat cheese or Brie.
  • Light pasta dishes with cream or butter-based sauces.
