In a few words ...
This cuvée "Les Rabassières" refers to the Rabasse, which means "truffle" in Provençal. As recently as the last century, the Plan de Dieu region, from which this cuvée comes, was renowned for its abundance of truffle oaks. A buried and coveted treasure, rabasse was often collected at night, so as not to reveal the location of the find! As a tribute to this highly developed local activity, and to the truffle oaks still present at the edge of the plot, "Les Rabassières" is a reminder of this heritage. With "Les Rabassières", Bouachon reveals all its Southern Rhône Valley expertise in the art of Grenache-Syrah blending.

Maison Bouachon
Maison Bouachon is a domain from the region Vallée du Rhône in France, that produces 9 wines available to purchase, including the wine Les Rabassières 2023.
Appellation
Côtes-du-Rhône
The appellation Côtes-du-Rhône is part of the region of Vallée du Rhône from France which include Maison Bouachon and its 9 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..
