"A 50/50 blend of roussanne and clairette. Pale yellow. Dried pit fruits, pear, anise and smoky herbs on the complex nose. Fleshy and smooth, with deep orchard and pit fruit flavors and bracing minerality. Leaves sweet tangerine and poached pear notes behind on the long, penetrating finish. This is balanced to age."

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
Spans the Syrah-driven northern crus of Cote-Rotie and Hermitage and the Grenache-based blends of the warmer south, led by Chateauneuf-du-Pape. Its wines are known for power, spice and warmth.
The southern Rhone's most famous appellation, blending Grenache with Syrah, Mourvedre and more into rich, warming, spice-laden reds from galet-strewn soils.
