Côtes-du-Rhône is a prestigious French denomination located in the Rhône region, renowned for its elegant and highly complex red wines.
Chateau-Grillet is a unique and niche entity within this area, famous for its exclusive production of white wine based on Viognier, a grape variety that gives the wine an intense and refined aromatic character. This wine is distinguished by an aging process that often involves wooden barrels, providing structure and softness without ever overshadowing the fruity and floral notes typical of Viognier.
On the nose, it presents clear scents of peach, apricot, and white flowers, enriched by a delicate hint of sweet spices; on the palate, the sip is enveloping, fresh, and persistent, capable of skillfully accompanying fish dishes, white meats, and fresh cheeses. Its particular origin makes it a rare gem appreciated among connoisseurs.
