Vaucher Père & Fils, established in 1782, is a historic Burgundy négociant known for producing wines that capture the essence of France’s diverse wine regions. Their Côtes du Rhône exemplifies this tradition, offering a harmonious blend of varietals typical of the Rhône Valley. The winemaking process involves careful selection of grapes, followed by fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks to preserve the wine’s fresh and fruity character. Aging is conducted in a combination of stainless steel and oak barrels, enhancing both structure and complexity.
