Country of Origin: France
Region: Northern Rhône Valley
<Varieties>

<Details/Technical Facts>
After harvest, the grapes are pressed slowly with an air-pressure press without being clarified, left for 12 hours, and then fermented in barrels. Natural yeast is used. The wine is aged for about 11 months. It is blended and then batonnaged until bottling. Since it is not filtered, some sediment remains in the bottle.
<<Tasting>>
Rich and full-bodied with mild acidity. The two varieties express their individuality, with the Roussanne providing roundness and aroma, and the Marsanne providing structure and length. It pairs well with rich, aromatic dishes.
