Presentation
RHONÉA, as the name suggests, is the trusted choice for Rhône Valley wines. Our Artisans winegrowers & winemakers have been committed since 1925 to bring you the best from our vineyards & let you taste more than just wine, but the quality & authenticity of our terroirs.
The vintage
2024 has been full of weather challenges. Spring brought disease pressure, summer droughts reduced yields, and heavy rains in September added to the difficulties. Even so, the great quality of the wines reflects the skill, dedication, and great adaptability of our Artisans winegrowers and winemakers.
Location
Sandy marls, clay and limestone terroir. Vines are located in the "Quartier des Vigneaux", "Rocalinaud" and "La Gière" sectors, on sandy marls, clay and limestone soils from the Miocene period.
In the vineyard
Hand-harvest at optimum maturity. From their arrival to the cellar until they arrived in the vats, grapes are maintained at cold temperatures (4-6°C) to preserve their aromas.
Winemaking
Alcoholic fermentation takes place at a low temperature and is stopped by "mutage" (addition of pure neutral alcohol) to maintain a certain level of natural sugar, balanced by acidity. 4-6 months in vats
Varietal
Muscat blanc à petits grains : 100%
