In a few words ...
The vines of "Pierrelongue" are planted on the appellation's high, stony terraces, known as garrigues, which stretch along the south-western slopes of the Dentelles de Montmirail. "Pierrelongue" has long owed its name to this terroir of long stones. With "Pierrelongue", Maison Bouachon reveals all the finesse and elegance of a Vacqueyras.

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 Pierrelongue 2020.
Appellation
Vacqueyras
The appellation Vacqueyras 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..
