ORGANIC

Keywords : Geneous / Fruity / Spicy

The wine : Le Gras C’est La Vie! is a wine that perfectly embodies the generosity and irresistible charm of the Rhône Valley. Its style is everything you could hope for from a beautifully made Côtes-du-Rhône: juicy, vibrant, spicy and packed with personality. The palate is bursting with flavours of ripe cherry, strawberry and raspberry, layered with notes of black pepper and the wild herbs of the Mediterranean scrubland. Rich in flavour yet wonderfully fresh and easy to drink, this is a wine that delivers both immediate pleasure and genuine character. Serve it alongside cured sausages, rillettes, pâté or a generous charcuterie board, and you have all the ingredients for a relaxed, memorable feast. Delicious!

The estate : Located in the heart of the Rhône Valley, in Lemps, the young but excellent Domaine Famille De Boel France was founded in 2016 by Nelly France and Arnaud de Boel. Their vineyard covers 11 hectares of biodynamically farmed vines, spread across the north and south of the region. The dynamic couple creates wines that combine indulgence and complexity, particularly under the AOC Côtes du Rhône, Côtes du Rhône Villages, Saint-Joseph, and Cornas. The grape varieties are diverse, notably Syrah, Grenache, Caladoc, Carignan, as well as the essential Marsanne and Roussanne for the white wines. A very promising estate whose reputation has already been well established in just a few years. Go for it, you won’t be disappointed!
