Description

Fine and delicate, Saint-Joseph’s wines were already on the market in the 16th Century. They were appreciated at the table of the kings of France. Erstwhile known as ‘Vin de mauves’, the Jesuits gave it its current name in the 17th century. It is between 1956 and 1969 that the AOC was made official for all the vineyard located in this part of the Côtes-du-Rhône. The name of our Saint-Joseph, red and white, comes from the Victor Hugo’s novel ‘Légende des siècles’:in the 9th century, the Grand pompée, faithful companion to Charlemagne, fought at his side against the Moors, on the right bank of the Rhône. A famous line remains from this battle: ’And wine, that wine beloved of the Grand Pompée’.
