This particularly fresh Viognier offers an aromatic bouquet of white stone fruit and citrus on the nose. On the palate, the wine shows balance and freshness, thanks to juicy acidity, and hints of exotic fruit.

The viognier vines are planted in the mountainous part of the Coteaux de l'Ardèche. Located to the west of the Rhône Valley, the Coteaux de l'Ardèche is known for its long and warm growing season. The altitude here ensures that the grapes ripen slowly and retain excellent, refreshing levels of acidity.

Maison & Domaines Les Alexandrins was established by Nicolas Jaboulet, formerly of the eponymous winery in Tain, the Perrin family from Château de Beaucastel, winemaker Guillaume Sorrel and viticulturalist Alexandre Caso in 2015. The partnership of this ‘micro-négociant’ stemmed from a long-standing friendship, a shared love of gastronomy and an aim to create wines that represent the best of their appellations. Now run solely by Nicolas, Alexandre and winemaker Benoît Busseuil, Maison Les Alexandrins is the négociant side of the business and these wines incorporate fruit purchased from a selection of the top growers in each appellation of the Northern Rhône, whereas the fruit for the Domaine Les Alexandrins wines comes entirely from estate-owned vineyards in Saint Joseph and Crozes-Hermitage.
