Viticultural notes
Brézème is the southernmost and one of the smallest appellations of the northern Côtes-du-Rhône, located at the confluence of the Drôme and Rhône rivers. The first traces of vines date back to the Middle Ages. Clay-limestone soil. The vines are cultivated in the traditional way, with the greatest respect for the terroir, to promote biodiversity and give the best to the grapes.
Tasting notes
Elegant, limpid, brilliant golden color. The nose reveals a superb aromatic bouquet that opens with notes of fresh banana and white flowers, before evolving towards exotic aromas of quince and mango. The palate is extremely elegant, with silky tannins and notes of blood orange and kumquat combined with floral notes of lime blossom and verbena, balanced by a minerality that brings a lovely freshness.
