The old Côtes du Rhône vineyard for Les Abeilles

This white wine comes from the Côtes du Rhône wine region. In the northern tip of the region, Jean-Luc Colombo cultivates his beautiful, old vineyards, filled with Clairette and Roussanne grapes that nourish this exquisite white wine. The climate is perfect, with abundant sunshine and cool mountain air. The grapes mature slowly and absorb plenty of nutrients from the rich soil structure. When the harvest is ripe, Jean-Luc Colombo has the grapes harvested early in the morning to prevent oxidation and bruising during transport.
