In a few words ...
GRAND VENDOR "Les Champauvins" represents 34 ha classified as Côtes du Rhône...but whose parcels are located on the northern edge of the Châteauneuf du Pape AOC. A small pebble path once served as the boundary between "Les Champauvins" and Châteauneuf du Pape. The subsoil consists of marine molasse and rolled pebbles (alpine diluvium). On the surface, the quantity of pebbles is impressive, as shown in the photo opposite. These pebbles accumulate heat during the day (a pebble in the sun reaches 55°C in summer) and release it to the vines at night. This source of heat enables the grapes to reach optimum ripeness. Traditional vinification in stainless steel vats with regular punching of the cap. 18-day vatting period. Grenache aged in vats and Syrah/Mourvèdre in 3-4 year-old oak barrels. Bottled after 12 months.

Alain Jaume
Alain Jaume is a domain from the region Vallée du Rhône in France, that produces 20 wines available to purchase, including the wine Domaine Grand Veneur "Les Champauvins" 2021.
Appellation
Côtes-du-Rhône
The appellation Côtes-du-Rhône is part of the region of Vallée du Rhône from France which include Alain Jaume and its 20 cuvées. Spread over The Rhone Valley and its rich, complex terroirs. The region is divided into two distinct subregions: Northern Rhone (known as Rhône Septentrional) and Southern Rhone (Rhône Méridional). In the former we find strong wines in beautiful colours with warm, spicy notes, produced by vineyards that stretch 4,700 ha along the Rhone. The latter, with an area of 71,000 ha, is much more important, and this is evident of course in its annual production of red, rosé and white wines quite unlike those of the Northern Rhone., this region is 3 million hectolitres per year of red wines, rosés, dry and sparkling white wines, and natural sweet wine..
