A Côtes du Rhône with a well-defined style, made from 200 parcels of different terroirs and old vines between 45 and 80 years old for the three grape varieties.

91/100 - JAMES SUCKLING

Terroir

More than 200 plots on different terroirs: pebbles, sand, clay-limestone marl, mainly in the northern part of the Vaucluse and on plots at altitude.
