COTES DU RHONE VILLAGES
(DROME)


Created in August 1967 the appellation "Cotes du Rhone Villages"distinguishes the best wines for which the growers voluntarily accept amore rigorous control to ensure that they present the very essence of thequalities of their sun and soil. The vineyards stretch from the boundariesof the Dauphine and the County of Venaissin to the approaches of Vaison-la-Romaine. Planted in a harsh dry soil, the grenache, syrah, mourvedre, cinsault andclairette vines produce their much appreciated roses, but the consumer knowsthe red wines better rich and fervent with all the aromas of the sun drenchedmoors. They range from carafe wines, gracious and fruity to be drunk inall their young freshness, to sumptuous long keeping wines, like those thatVinsobres produces for you in its privileged position sheltered from thewind, and in the full light of the sun.
