Camp Romain, AOC Côtes du Rhône Villages Laudun, White, 2023

The 2022 vintage was characterised by a very dry winter, with the vegetative cycle of the vines resuming very early in March. Spring saw abundant flowering, but was marked in June by severe hail in and around Laudun, which affected many plots. The summer was very dry, resulting in a high-quality harvest, with beautifully aromatic rosés, reds with high tannin potential and rich, flavoursome whites.

Presentation

Presentation
This cuvée, Camp Romain, pays tribute to the Camp de César overlooking the villages of Laudun and Chusclan. It was the painter Albert André, a post-impressionist, whose attachment to Laudun and its wines led him to design the very first label for this cuvée in 1951. Since then, vintage after vintage, Maison Sinnae has paid tribute to the great painter he was. This cuvée is part of Maison Sinnae's desire and commitment to pass on to future generations the heritage and terroir of the Rhône.
