Vineyard & Winemaking Notes

Cotes du Rhone lies in the southern part of the Rhone Valley, located in southeastern France where the growing season is sunny and hot. Grenache is the dominant varietal in the southern Rhone and is a very versatile grape that blends well with Syrah. The vines lie baking on broad terraces of stone warmed by the sun developing a fruity, fresh wine.
