    Winemaker Notes

    A blend of Roussanne, Viognier, Altesse and Clairette from 1 hectare of southeast-facing vines in Ampuis (pebbly soils) and Saint Cyr (loess soils). The vineyards are worked completely organically, and harvests done only by hand, with a careful sorting done right in the vineyard. The grapes are pressed and undergo a pre-fermentation cold soak. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks, always with indigenous yeasts, and then the wine is aged 1 year in barriques and stainless steel tanks. Lightly filtered before bottling. This is a lively and fresh wine with aromas of citrus and flowers and a crisp citric profile that means it goes very well with shellfish, crustaceans, fish, goat cheese or as an aperitif.

    Guillaume Clusel, France
    10 hectares of vines, managed by Guillaume, sit in the southernmost part of the Coteaux du Lyonnais (just on the border with the Rhône). Here there are two types of soil: glacial soils with large stones in the communes of Millery and Grigny, and gneiss (a rock resembling granite) in the village of Orliénas. The vines, with an average age of 30 years, are southeast facing and very densely planted. The sandy soils and large stones absorb heat and, along with the more Rhône-like climate, allow a good maturation of the Gamay grape (the only permitted red grape in this appellation). The vineyards are worked completely organically, and no insecticides or synthetic products are used.

    Full-bodied and flavorful, white Rhône blends originate from France’s Rhône Valley. Today these blends are also becoming popular in other regions. Typically some combination of Grenache Blanc, Marsanne, Roussanne and Viognier form the basis of a white Rhône blend with varying degrees of flexibility depending on the exact appellation. Somm Secret—In the Northern Rhône, blends of Marsanne and Roussanne are common but the south retains more variety. Marsanne, Roussanne as well as Bourboulenc, Clairette, Picpoul and Ugni Blanc are typical.

    A small category representing the wines that either fall outside of appellation lines or don’t subscribe to the law and traditions set forth by the French government within certain classified appellations, “Vin De France” is a catch-all that includes some of the most basic French wines as well as those of superior quality. The category includes large production, value-driven wines. It also includes some that were made with a great deal of creativity, diligence and talent by those who desire to make wine outside of governmental restrictions. These used to be called Vin de Table (table wine) but were renamed to compete with other European countries' wines of similar quality.
