Made using carbonic maceration which emphasises the vibrant fruit and floral character of the wine. The nose is filled with enticing aromas of violets, cherries and blueberries, while the palate is soft, smooth and balanced, with fine tannic structure and lovely refreshing acidity. The perfect wine for charcuterie, specifically light white rinded cheeses such as brie or camembert and cold cuts.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAbout the Producer\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eVignerons Ardechois, as its name suggests, is based in the beautiful yet remote Ardeche, surrounded by beautiful natural borders with the Rhone river to the east and Cevennes mountains west. With 6,000 hectares spread out over a mosaic of terroirs and a thousand families of winegrowers working with passion and a respect for humanity and nature. Passionate about the environment, they work sustainably using rainwater collection, waste management and a weather station to better work with vines without using chemicals. They also keep a beehive and a bats nests as they are passionate about the local biodiversity.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFollowing in the footsteps of countless generations, with knowledge and expertise being passed down. Methodical pruning in the harshness of winter, vineyard grassing to preserve the life of the soil, green harvest to maintain small yields so that each bay can give its full potential. Followed by the meticulous blending, vine after vine. Time and again, searching for this fine balance between the hand of man and the expression of soil to bring together a wine translating all the facets of the terroirs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eVineyard and Winery\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eArdeche is an IGP which covers red, white and rose wines made in southern-central France. Named after the River Ardèche, the Ardèche sits on the western banks of the Rhône river and covers an important part of the northern Rhône vineyards while also bridging into the western side of the southern Rhône. Here Chardonnay is the predominant varietal and benefits from the Ardèche`s Mediterranean climate, where mild winters are followed by hot, dry summers. The cool, northerly Mistral wind is felt throughout the department which can help to extend the ripening period, giving elegance to the final wines.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"RWA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55490595815797,"sku":"","price":11.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0002\/3537\/2571\/files\/F98BAA09-4080-4A41-8251-D8AB3D1ED296.jpg?v=1778773330","url":"https:\/\/aitkenwines.com\/products\/vignerons-ardechois","provider":"Aitken's","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
