Детайли

100% Roussanne, vinified and aged in oak casks. Yellow-gold color, the nose is rich in aromas of citrus fruit, tropical fruit, quince and honey, with a touch of vanilla. On the palate, the same aromas appear together with a fatness combining exotic fruit and vanilla : the wine is rich, generous and elegant, with extraordinary length. “La Fontaine” is often considered to be one of the best Châteauneuf du Pape white, and it is by definition a superb gastronomy wine.

More about this product

Alain Jaume

In the 14th century, Pope John XXII built a palace in the village of Châteauneuf. He and his heirs, impressed by the exceptional terroir, planted vineyards around the castle on terraces covered with smooth rounded limestone pebbles. Thus was born one of the most famous and valued appeals in the world: Châteauneuf du Pape. The Jaume family has been dedicated to the art of making wine since 1826. Alain Jaume wines have a huge potential to age and are rich, rich and complex. They reflect and embody the superb terroir of the southern Rhone Valley.

Rhone Valley

The Rhone Valley is a long, narrow strip in the south of France. In practice, this region is divided into two sub-regions, each with its own type and identity - North and South Rhone. The northern part is best known for its legendary and long-lasting red wines, mainly from Syrah grapes: Hermitage, Ivory Coast, St. Joseph and Cornas, as well as the fragrant white Viognier from Condrieu. The south is home to the full Chateauneuf-du-Pape and Gigondas, as well as the light Rose of Tavel. Chateauneuf-du-Pape can be a blend of up to 13 different varieties, 3 of which are even white. This is the main difference between it and Gigondas, where white varieties in the blend are not allowed. The most famous of these main red varieties are Grenache, Mourvedre, Syrah and Cinsault, and the white ones are Roussanne, Marsanne and Viognier.

Roussanne

Русан (Roussanne) е бял сорт грозде, отглеждан в долината на Рона и други райони на френската област Миди. Често се използва в купажи с Марсан, с който често се бърка, и е един от разрешените сортове за производство на бяло Chateauneuf-du-Pape. В сравнение с Марсан, Русан е по-ароматен и елегантен, като дава вина с продължителен аромат, напомнящ билков чай, и свеж, пикантен вкус. Освен това тази добра киселинност дава на вината по-голяма дълготрайност в сравнение с Марсан. Благодарение на тези си качества сортът се налага в Савоя и Прованс.
