This voluptuously textured but elegant dry white offers hints of toast and nut alongside crisp apricot, lemon and grapefruit flavors. It's a full-bodied, clingy sip edged by a lingering nut-skin astringency. Enjoy now through 2023 for its fresh, fruity character.
The Roux family acquired the Château du Trignon in 1896. Back then it was a traditional Provençal farm of the time, with mixed and livestock farming. Since then 5 generations have refocused the farm on the vine and expanded the estate across a number of neighboring appellations: Gigondas, Rasteau, Sablet et Côtes du Rhône.
A qualitative approach is also underway with the construction of a gravity winery, the adaptation of the planting of grape varieties to the land the air-conditioning of the cellar.
