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
Philippe Pellaton adores heritage and old buildings, not only for the beauty of these sites but above all for the stories that they have to tell. For the past 20 years, he has been working his terroir with the desire to pass on this heritage and share a certain Rhône Valley way of life with future generations…
Terroir
