L'Aube 2020 Côtes du Rhône Vignoble Anne Collard

“Cros de L’Aube” is the name of our plot’s location. Mixing French (l’Aube) and Provence language (Cros), it translates to the “Dawn’s Pit”. It is where the first sunbeams hit the vineyard, in the morning hush, while the hills of St Roman Abbey are still bathed in blue shades. On these round hills from the “Côtes du Rhône Villages” area, old vines of Grenache find their balance on very rocky soils. They benefit a propitious climate at the confluence of the Rhône and the Gardon River. This wine results from a careful selection in our vineyard, aiming to show what voluptuous and vivid blend can arise from such privileged conditions.
