TERROIR
–
Colourful lands,
the ochre sands and sandstone from the Cretaceous era mark the countryside around Roussillon, the heart of the southern part of the Côtes du Ventoux appellation.
The valleys in the ochre-bearing hills are coated with sandy-rocky silt, with good vine-growing potential.
However, these quaternary formations are sparse, and are the consequence of the existence of «confetti-type» vineyards, planted sporadically alongside the cherry trees, highly present due to the candied fruit industry in the area. |

GRAPE VARIETY
–
The White Wines in the appellation are made from the grape varieties of Clairette, Grenache blanc, Bourboulenc, Roussane and Ugni blanc. The dominant varietal is Clairette, which provides freshness, finesse and floral notes. Clairette adds to the good balance of the vines offered by the regional winemakers.
