The latest in this line by VIGNOBLES ET COMPAGNIE is a true reflection of the Winery’s values and personality. It is a genuine and contemporary cuvée with that touch of boldness which characte-rizes great wines… To emphasize its singu-larity, the labels bear an orange ribbon which also highlights our signature. The ribbon represents the precious aspect, like a gift for yourself or for others. The orange hue was a symbol of gastronomic pleasure and appetite for life even back in the Middle Ages. And still today it is associated with creativity, optimism and an open mind. It is also a shade that hints at the warmth of the south and Provencal tradition.
