In a few words ...
Château Grillet is an insider's wine that doesn't give itself away easily, but possesses great finesse, tension and magnificent aromatic complexity. A great wine for laying down, it requires patience to reveal all its magic... Its mineral expression is often accompanied by a marine freshness, almost iodized and sometimes even mentholated. The aromatic spectrum is broad and varied. Floral elegance (rose, violet, lime blossom) and fruity sweetness (pear, pineapple, apricot) can also be accompanied by warmer, greedier notes such as honey, nougat, hazelnut, vanilla, white truffle or spices like saffron. A remarkably well-balanced wine, with a dominant fatness enhanced by excellent acidity, Château-Grillet goes perfectly with truffled foie gras, roasted turbot, braised lobster, scallops or Bresse poultry in cream sauce. Pairings with Asian cuisine, spicy dishes or sweet-and-sour flavors can also produce wonderful experiences.

Appellation
Château-Grillet
The appellation Château-Grillet is part of the region of Vallée du Rhône from France which include Château Grillet and its 1 cuvées. Spread over The Rhone Valley and its rich, complex terroirs. The region is divided into two distinct subregions: Northern Rhone (known as Rhône Septentrional) and Southern Rhone (Rhône Méridional). In the former we find strong wines in beautiful colours with warm, spicy notes, produced by vineyards that stretch 4,700 ha along the Rhone. The latter, with an area of 71,000 ha, is much more important, and this is evident of course in its annual production of red, rosé and white wines quite unlike those of the Northern Rhone., this region is 3 million hectolitres per year of red wines, rosés, dry and sparkling white wines, and natural sweet wine..
