In the same way as maps,
wine captures the essence of a particular place
at a particular time.

I'd like you to be able to share this story too.

My name is Anne Collard and I’m a vine grower.

Background

Let me tell you about the project that inspired me over several years. I am particularly fond of the grape variety Grenache (Garnacha in Spanish), which produces round, generous wines. So I broadened my horizons and travelled up the River Rhône from Beaucaire to Comps, the southernmost village in the Côtes du Rhône wine region.

As I was making my way up the Rhône to the Aiguille Peak, I came across a leafy-green oasis, nestling in a refreshingly cool setting.

The vines flourish on the hillsides overlooking the confluence of the Rhône and Gardon rivers.
