The
combination of grape varietals, diversity of regions,
climate, rich and sun-drenched soils all contributed
to making Côtes du Rhône wines a Controled
Origin Appellation
in 1937. Among
the large French AOC winemaking regions, this is one
of the leaders in terms of both volume and production.
Thus, we distinguish between Northern Côtes
du Rhône, characterised
by strong wines with a dark colour and surprising
taste, and Southern Côtes du Rhône,
located further upstream in the Rhône - Alpes
region, with more supple wines and intense aromas.
