Villa Sinnae, AOC Côtes du Rhône Villages Laudun, Blanc, 2023

The 2023 vintage, despite a dry winter, witnessed the vines beginning their cycle. A rainy spring energized growth, especially for the Grenache. Summer heat exceeding 40°C affected yields, but the grape quality remains excellent, resulting in robust red wines, aromatic whites, and a vibrant character for the rosés.

Presentation

Presentation
Villa Sinnae is inspired by the passionate love that Caesar had for his very first wife, Cornelia Sinnae, symbolised by this mosaic found on the Gallo-Roman Oppidum overlooking the villages of Laudun and Chusclan.
A cuvée in honour of this passionate love which still resonates today on the lands of the right bank of the Rhône. A bold, sensual cuvée in homage to the men and women who shape this cuvée vintage after vintage.
